"39% Dixie. You are definitely a Yankee"

Hardly scientific or relevant if you're not American but still interesting. I'm a northerner at heart, but that's north of England[:D].

62% Dixie, which seems fair since I hail from further South than nearly all of you!

Wow! Kinda amamzed myelf. 100% Dixie. Which I'm from Alabama, from a pretty rural area. Like that little test. Do ya'll know one of the most common questions that you can be asked at a place to eat down South? "What do u want to drink?" And you say, "Coke". Then the waitress will ask you,"What kind?"

I just remembered my childhood terms and got 90% Dixie.

Born and raised in central Texas, it is a different state now. I remember hearing, "The problem with air conditioning is that it made it possible for yankees to live in Texas."

Didn't do as good as I thought, only 92% dixie. But then again I live in the NORTH, that's North Carolina [:p] Could be worst, I could be living in Flordia which is 99% yankees with all of them yankee retirees / snowbirds moving down that way. We got signs at all of the roads into North Carolina stating Yankees go home, just leave your money[:D]. Heard that Flordia has left the confederacy and joined the Union [B)]

You ain't kidding about Florida. I moved here from North Carolina. I told my wife that we had to go north to go south. Yankees shore do love to honk their horns and run red lights!

"Definitely a Yankee." Guess I got my colours (yes, that IS the correct spelling) right.
