I got 100% on Canadian... my next two highest were Aussie and prison though :o I thought I'd do higher on British, since I do use a lot of it in common speech.

Some things I noticed about this test though:
-it doesn't take in to account the diverse regionalism of slang
-for some questions, I had never heard any of the definitions offered and was basically just guessing!
-I have a mixed slanguage, and use the same slang term for different things, depending on the situation and who I'm with, and this test didn't account for that.... I defaulted to Canadian meanings though, clearly!

...yes I do have better things to do with my time. I should go do them -_-

I scored:

75% Canadian
75% British
75% Aussie

and less on the others...

For some of these, I had no idea, so I just guessed the most likely-sounding explanation. Others, the explanation in my head was not among the options, so again I just guessed.

I ended up with:

50% Canadian
50% Victorian
50% Prison

Which clearly means that I was "transported" to Canada instead of Australia, possibly because the judge had the hots for me trouble-and-strife.

I am told I speak Aussie slang... Although the score was actually tied:

75% Aussie
75% British
75% Canadian

With Prison coming in at 50%, and Southerna and Victorian tied at 25%.
