60% (Dixie). Barely into the Dixie category. I do live in the south...of England

Hi y'all,

Dixie: 61%

Throwing toilet paper over a house? What's up with that?

Love,
CJ

[Carolynn]

61% Dixie huh. And you live in Montreal. Some test, eh.

TPing is a redneck teenager way of welcoming new people to the neighborhood, or to celebrate some event. One kid in this neighborhood was voted most valuable player for his Soccer team, and his house and trees were Toilet papered!!! When a local school won the American Football playoffs for Highschools, the student body TPed the entire school. Kinda ran the merchants short. When I movedin, the trees in front of my house were, which surprised me since at the time I thought it was only if you had kids. Its not necessarily a bad thing in teen society in this redneck place. The stuff is cheap, and if you use water to spray it down, and wash it off, is pretty easy to clean up. I am sure teens don't think about that until they have to clean it out of their yards. Adults usually do not participate in it. Its too much trouble to clean up!!

Love, Carolynn

Hi Curly. 60% Dixie? I love it!!! The friend that sent me this is going to freak. She came out 70% Dixie, in spite of having been born and raised in Missouri, north of the Mason?\Dixon line. She has just lived in SE Oklahoma for 50 years. You and CJ she will have a hard time explaining.

Love, Carolynn

[Curly(SO)]

Ed got 63% Dixie

It was hard..

No. 1 I pronounce Aunt: Arnt like in father.

No. 8 We don't have sales on front lawns, we have car boot sales in fields. Commonly known as car booties.

No. 9 We do have 'Subway' here but generally we would say ham roll, filled french stick or filled baguette.

No. 11 Gym shoes=trainers.

No. 16 Varys around the country but I call it fizzy drink.

No. 20 Is that a woodlice?!

[Terri(SO)]

The score says 44% Yankee but I know that's only because I've been in California too long. I grew up in New England (but only miss it in the Fall).

[Jadeanne]

My score is 48% Yankee

[Danette]

41% Yankee here. Some as SL, Generations of Michigan

[Gaven McLaren]

58% (Dixie). Barely into the Dixie category.

Being that I grew up in California and have southern family. I say it would be about what I would think. However There are a few that I could have answered either way.

[Connie]

53% barely Dixie.

Lived all my life in NJ. I noticed a lot of my answers were listed as being south and west of me.

I have no idea what #20 would be but there was no "none of the above"!

[Imma]

To Group:

Looks like Imma leads the rebels with 70% Dixie!

Take a look at my latest photo posting and tell me if you think Imma is a Southern Belle!

LOL

Imma

[DonnaT]

Got you beat Imma.

71% (Dixie). That is a pretty strong Southern score!

[SilverLady(SO)]

Well, at 32% Yankee for myself, that's a pretty strong score, too, and as of right now, I'm leading the Yankees!!!



Love "you all" anyway!!!

PS: I note that I originally answered #19 as a beverage barn, but I only knew that from living in FL for the past 10 years, where those are commonly found (we don't have them in MI). I recalculated my score, changing just that answer (to "haven't heard"), and it gave me a total of 31% Yankee . . . even better, IMHO!!
