Not very, it seems. Don’t tell Guido; if word gets out, he’ll never hire me! And for the love of God don’t tell Steven L: he’ll probably stick me in Gitmo “just in case.”
You are 66% English.
Getting there. You may wish to pay attention to the world around you.
“And did those feet
In ancient times,
Walk upon England’s mountains green?
And was the holy Lamb of God
In England’s pleasant pastures seen?”
Well, no, but it’s a cracking good tune.

Technorati me!
raincoaster 
55 here. I couldn’t decide whether it would be more British to think of the Blitz as a dark time, which it certainly was, or London’s finest hour in a Tennyson sort of way.
Me too. But I think what killed it for me is I picked “Jerusalem” and that’s probably too, you know, ethnic, for the Brits.
79%, and I’ve lived here all my life. Essentially, I actually dispute the quiz. I mean…cricket team? Does that include the subs? The Blitz was a dark time. And Jerusalem is the unnofficial national anthem (there’s a big campaign to make it official at the moment)…well…it isn’t if you ask me…I think it’s generally considered to be Angels by Robbie Williams. Because everyone in England is a massive wanker.
(I’m still bitter about losing the cricket you see).
Anyway, currently online quizzes hold me to 79% English and 56% Canuck. This is innacurate by any measure.
Anyway…I need a bath (that time of the year you see, Merrie olde Dickensian England being my home of course we can only afford one bath a year and I have to share it with my 58 siblings).
I thought it was that Millennium song by Cliff Richard?
With that many siblings, you must actually be 100% Irish!
Right…so I worked it until I got 100%…and I definitely disagree with some of the answers….but I hate nationalism anyway, so I’m not going to talk about it.
Good call, anything by Sir Cliff will do the job. That one I find particularly good for scaring rats (I wish). And not Irish…just raised by Catholics (and not very good ones at that).
I wonder if they’re going to use this as their “Britishness” test for immigrants? I wonder how Blair would do, actually.
I heard something on the radio saying that the test would have questions like ‘what should you do if you spill someone’s drink in a pub?’ Presumably the correct answer on the test would be that you’d buy them another whilst apologising.
In my experience the key is in fact to make a very rapid assessment of the other person. Big and angry= Run, or get punched…the polite option is the latter
Big and not so angry= Apologise…judge from their reaction whether you should by them a drink or not
Small and not angry= Ignore them (polite people can say sorry and then ignore them)
Small and angry= Beat them up (polite people can revert to the above answer)
But then…this is probably why I don’t like busy pubs…and am not setting British Citizenship tests.
I think you should. You sound wise. OMG, there’s a feature on that very site that allows you to set your own quiz. Are you up for it??? Doing this kind of work pays a bloody fortune, according to people who work for Blair!
What? Lots of money for making a quiz based on ridiculous nationalist stereotypes?
I love this planet.
The future is now Rain, the future is now.
Erm…I might be bothered one day…right now I’m a bit to hazy of mind to think about satire…even if it is as half arsed as everything else I do on this kerazy webternet thingumy.
Well if you leave it up to me it’ll be all “I love anarchists” and “The Beatles totally kick the Stones’ asses” True/False questions.
OK…I say true to both…how do I score?
You’re a citizen of the world. Here’s your universal passport!
87% And I only inherited it!
One begins to suspect there’s a slight flaw in these quizzes.
No wonder the US and UK need to stymie peoples human rights to fight terrorists…even their dearest neighbours the Canucks are handing out universal passports to 96% terrorist anarchist loving Beatles fans.
I knew I should have voted Republican
And now, thanks to your universal passport, you CAN!
I might pop down to dover and try and board the nearest ship.
‘Excuse me sir, can I check your passport?’
‘I have a universal one. Ask Raincoaster…she’s from Canada and I’ve never met her. She wishes she was an ancient God underneath the sea…but I’m not entirely convinced. Anyway, she says I can use it to go anywhere. Can I take this boat and sail it into the Statue of Liberty…its the only way I can think of to ramp up my stats on the terrorist by 4%’
In fact…I won’t have finished that sentence because I’ll probably at this point be being extraordinarily rendered to somewhere horrible and dark with lots of torture..
I can’t wait.
No, no, you have to start by going to Canada. Then all you have to say is “I’m a refugee and I worship Cthulhu” and they’ll give you welfare and citizenship. From here you just tell the Americans you’re Canadian and so on, hopscotching around.
Cool, I’ll rob a dinghy and see you in a month or two.
Once I get into Canada I just ask where you are and it can’t be more than five minutes walk?
Right?
Canada is no bigger than a small village right?
Sweetie, everyone knows raincoaster. No worries!
