The following clues reveal answers that are oxymorons – two words that are opposites. The number of letters in each word is in parentheses. Example : Large seafood (5,6) = jumbo shrimp. -1. pictorial speech (7,8) -2. certain chance (8,11) -3. Hades Seraphim (5,6) -4. necessary option (7,8) think college -5. poor chance (3,4) -6. bellowing quiet (7,7) -7. property improvement (4,11) -8. brief stretch (5,6) -9. casually compressed (7,6) -10. subdued boogie (4,4)
Netflix needs to stop asking if I'm still watching and start asking if I've switched the laundry over yet

Is the letter count correct for 6? I ask because I would expect this one to be deafening silence (but perhaps you use a different expression on that side of the puddle)

Life is what happens while you're making other plans.
