Being Gen X I can tell whoever wrote this quiz did not use the language of the day.
For example, a cat means a guy, usually a peer. A cool cat is a guy that is approved and admired.

I always thought the phrase “psyche!”, to mean you’re just kidding or joking, originated in the 80’s, but I guess it started before then.

“Psyche” was used in sports a lot in the late ’60s.
