I might have gotten a higher Canadian score if I actually used some of those terms I know from here (e.g. a "double double" to me would be a strong drink, not a coffee)

A lot of guesses. It could do with a 'no idea' or 'none of those' option. I've obviously picked up a fair bit from you guys!
I can't work out what "British" slang I missed, but the ones I saw were all SE England.

I decided not to take the quiz after I realized I hadn't heard of most of the options. A cougar to me is a big cat.

Same here. Whee, randomly guessing. Too bad they had no boring midwestern US slang section on there for me. Not that we've got much.

Which one of the types of slang is cougar? Is it Canadian? :unsure:
I use the word in it's slang context....but around here we use it to refer to a woman of any age that's going after a younger guy....
Daemon - July 12, 2005 08:27 PM (GMT)
I'm pretty sure that it's Canadian. Some of my American buddies have no idea what I'm talking about when I use it.
And a proper cougar is like late 30s, though they dress like they are still in high school. Some sort of 80s high school, at any rate. I think that "cougar" comes from the habitual wearing of leopard-skin print pants.
Some of my friends refer to themselves as cougars, but it's generally a delicious hyperbole.
