I live in a house.

First question stumps me, I have maybe 2 houses close enough to call neighbors, do I just say no?
>>
Answering made be a bit sad and yet It puts me as 33 second-gen upper middle class.

It felt more like a 'are you a redneck' quiz btw

Makes sense, I am from a small white suburb a ways outside of Atlanta.

Why don't they have one for ghetto negros? They also live in a bubble. They have no exposure to anything but their ghetto ways.

Yeah, even though im obviously not American I went ahead and did it anyway and it seems like they are calling me a redneck.

Always wanted to be a real American cowboy anyway.

It says I'm first generation middle class which is accurate. Both my biological parents are from different countries. I don't watch television though so it was wrong about my television watching habits
>>
>>72321644
That means you're illiterate and poor

What the fuck?

Yes I know 50 of my neighbors and their education levels.

I love how at the end of the day, the only qualifier for the "streetwise hermit at the far end of a mythical mountain," is race.
If you are wealthy and educated, and you've never actually subjected yourself to what the real world is like or tried to influence it in some meaningful way, you're in a fucking bubble, whether you're white, Asian, black, Brazilian. I don't know how someone is going to sit there tell me that those nogs going to fucking university are somehow "oppressed and disillusioned."

Odd thing about this test is that it traps you into answering their questions with no input available but their own engineered responses.

Replaced America as well as possible.

33 points. First-generation middle upper class with middle class parents fits well.

I assumed that that question would add more to your "bubble thinness" number.

It's a quiz meant for Americans to see how much they know about their own "culture," which apparently includes the dankest meme shows like TBBT, Two and a Half Men, and Lost.
What really gets me is shit like "Have you or a spouse purchased a pickup truck?"

I'm not surprised that American journalist's test for something like that is a clusterfuck of inane bullshit.

23, get at me poorfags and goys.

Wait, a higher score means you're more working class?
>couldn't afford TV all my life
>could only afford to eat a box of KD growing up
>couldn't even afford bus money as a kid
>got my first computer 5 years ago
And it calls me middle class?

I got a 27 even though I have three dependents and our entire household income is 14,000. I owe like, $400 dollars right now, have negative dollars in the bank and haven't even started to make rent for May, but I live in a bubble, I guess because I don't argue about politics enough or attend SJW events.
>>
>>72326724
Maybe it's because you don't watch TV and if you don't watch the Big Bang theory than you must be watching "upperclass" PBS shows
>>
>>72326947
>>72326724
The funny thing is that they didn't even mention "dancing with the stars."
I'm a complete backwaters fuckwit. I've seen more people who watch Dancing With the Stars than TBBT, probably because it's more uplifting to see someone with no. fucking. legs. dance than it is to listen to some obnoxious cunt's idea of humor.
