I was rather flummoxed by the “How Massachusetts Are You?” test at Phantom Scribbler, but it did lead me indirectly to this little gem:
You rock, you are an almighty Canadian through and through. You have proven your worthiness and have won the elite prize of living in a country as awesome as Canada. Yes I know other countries think they are better, but we let them have that cuz we know better than they do, eh?
Really, I’m hardly surprised.

I’m 100% born and raised. I had to laugh at the one question that suggested that Canadian Tire sells dresses. Sure, why not? They’ve got just about everything else from time to time.
Wow! I’m not surprised, you overachiever you. I was 96% Massachusetts, myself.
Me too!! 100% Canuck.
Man, you really set the bar high. I felt so pressured taking the test, especially the whistling box question, and I only scored 91%. I know it was that whistling box question.
*laughing*
Cinnamon Gurl, you didn’t use a Smarties box as a kazoo? Back in the good old days before product tampering, when the end was just folded over instead of glued… ah, the good old days!
Doh!
I may be having some vague memories of smarties as a kazoo, but I didn’t think that was a special Canadian thing. I thought KD was the Canadian thing.
