When people are chatting informally, do they really use “hubieses” or “hubieras”? It sounds awkward or pretentious to me

Purpose of seNi se te ocurra llegar más tarde de las 12!Don't even think about arriving after 12! Hola, I’m confused about “se” here. If se is omitted, wouldn’t the sentence mean the same thing? eg isn’t te for ocurrirse ( to think of)? Muchas gracias, Shirley.

En la segunda oración... ¿Solo puede ser

En la segunda oración... ¿Solo puede ser (como dado en la traducción), o puede ser también ?

Because... the English given was "Finally we are going on a cruise" (literally, "Por fin vamos de crucero"); and of course "Por fin vamos a ir de crucero" would literally be "Finally we are going to go on a cruise". I understand that the meaning underneath the use of the present tense English translation that was given indicates a future event; I'm just hoping for clarity about the correctness or acceptability of using the present tense in Spanish in this case. Thank you!

Excepto vs MenosTodo fue genial en la entrevista *excepto* que derramé el café.Everything went great at the interview, except that I spilt the coffee.
Could you please explain why ''menos'' cannot be accepted here? I went through the lesson above, but for some reason, I'm not seeing if there are sort of exceptions when only ''excepto'' can be accepted, and menos would be incorrect. Thank you in advance
