    I always get weird scores on these, because I adopted various things from a grandfather that moved across country. My grandfather, and therefore I, used the word "crawdad" and that throws off everything else in these quizzes. Crawdad/crayfish/etc. seems to get a large amount of weight.

      I also say crawdad, but I think that's because it was in a folk song I learned in elementary school
