Something to do with table legs, Johnny? At least you didn’t score any prison slang! (I blame The Wire)
I’m thinking there must be a lot of new (post 1990) Canadian slang out there. British slang makes sense since I lived in England more recently and also live with an Englishman.

What was interesteing was that there were some questions where more than one of the answers was “right”. Maybe that’s what helped decide what sort of score you were given.

Big Bad Johnny probably has it right, your score depending on which “right” answer you picked. I racked up as follows:
Canadian 75%, Prison 75%, Southern 75%, victorian 75%
Aussie 50%, British 50%
I attribute all of those scores except Southern to my reading habits. Since I live with a bunch of redneck southerners, it doesn’t surprise me that I scored fairly high. Of course, while I understand the slang, I don’t use it much.

Crikey I’m basically a Victorian Aussie. And there was me thinking I was such a Brit. That 3 months in Oz a few years ago – must have made a deep impression…
But there’s a lot of crossover between Aussie and Brit slang I think. And 25% prison? Cripes. 0% Canadian. Now that’s to be expected. 😉

I think I should be worried, az! Either that or read fewer dodgy novels! LOL
Although, the last score may be from the crowd I hung with yesterday at the GA office…
