You are definitely a Yankee. and then 76% Dixie. Your neck must be a little pink. Mom is a Yankee, Dad is a Rebel. I guess I take after them both...

43% Dixie. Barely in Yankeedom.

There were a few questions which didn't have my word(s) for certain things.
For example the night before Halloween, We call "Mat night". There were a few others.

So the number above isn't really accurate

33% Dixie. You are definitely a Yankee.

I had an odd upbringing. I was raised by my mom and stepdad. My stepdad grew up on a farm in Oklahoma but raised us on the beach in California! I'll bet I was the only surfer kid who had biscuits and gravy before he went out, and fried Okra for dinner!

Kinda miss the beach! (but not the pollution)

Funny I scored so high on the Dixie scale, as my known ancestors date back to the 1600's, and there's not a southerner among them. jj

88% Dixie. Do you still use Confederate money?

but i'm knowing that the truth is i'm 100% dixie born and raised so they have created a bogus test that does not reflect true southern answers. that frontage, access road thing was a trick question - we have either paved, gravel, or dirt roads or you can cut straight across a field if it's dry. and that bug that rolls in a ball southerners call a roly-poly not a doodlebug - i've never heard it called otherwise. we drive through the BEER barn to get beer - clearly on the sign "beer barn" - licker is at the licker store.

Considering I am a true Seattleite (born and raised, never lived anywhere else in the US at least)... well lets just say I think thats rather sad that you have to be either a yank or a dixie. Oh well. Besides, a bunch of those were like, can I do multiples here? Soda, Pop, Soft Drink... yup, all three :/
