covers most if not all aspects of this thread and lists languages with similar behavior. (See table entries marked "last value", like Perl, Ruby, JS, Python,...)

Quotes:

• In loosely typed languages that have more than the two truth-values True and False, short-circuit operators may return the last evaluated subexpression. The expression x and y is equivalent to y if x else x; the expression x or y is equivalent to x if x else y (without evaluating x twice). This is called "last value" in the table below.
• For some Boolean operations, like exclusive or (XOR), it is not possible to short-circuit, because both operands are always required to determine the result.
