There's no submit button. So I don't know.

I got "probably American" and I should "check my passport." (Maybe the website checked my IP address and figured I am a Yank?)

ETA @2: Checking off a box is a "submit" on that question, and you get your result when you've done all of the questions.

Hah, it guessed correctly that I am "probably American."

#2 - there isn't a submit button--when you answer all the questions, your result should just pop up after your last selection. That's how it worked with me, anyway.

#1 Thanks for this fun quiz. I got "British as a Dalek serving afternoon tea" (there aren't any more British (or awkward) than you.

Haha. I take that as a compliment as I often dream of living in London.

As British as David Beckham’s right foot

Or David Beckham’s left foot, come to think of it. Though at heart you’re British, you’ve seen enough of the world to make you realise there’s more to life than emotional repression.


heh

Better heart than stomach.

I got the same as Nickelini! I'm happy enough with that, awkwardness and all, considering I am an American!

I got the same as Nickelini as well - my answers involved a lot of tea drinking :-)

I got, "As British as a Dalek serving afternoon tea," same as framboise and reconditereader. I'd ask you both for tea but I feel a bit awkward because my house is a bit cold, we've tun out of Hobnobs and anyway, we haven't been properly introduced so I'd have to 'exterminate' you.

Oh, that was fun. Turns out I'm a Stephen Fry, too.

I'm not sure how British that is, but, I do like most everything English. I especially like British Mysteries.

I got as British as a Dalek serving afternoon tea. They added that the Empire is lucky to have me. Sadly, not a Brit though. :)

I continued down through some quizes that wanted you to pick various rooms: living room, bedroom, dining room, bathroom, kitchen, room for a kid... But none of them had bookshelves. Why would I want a room without bookcases full of books?
