Yankee or rebel? Now there's a test

[terriphill]

A friend sent me this website..
Are You a yankee or a rebel?

How do you score?

 

[aerog]

I ain't no yankee, but that thar test thinks I is. 34% worth too.

Dang it.

 

[Gliderman8]

This test is flawed.... Not one questioned mentioned RC Cola :lol:

[Silverghost]

Ah yup.....13% Dixie I is. Born and raised in Pennsylvania I was!! :laugh:

 

[Darwin]

In the originil test I is 46% Southerner and in the advanced I is 96% y'all. Don't care. I still ain't eatin' oakree, chilin, poke salad, or grits.

 

[bgbassplyr]

100% Dixie. Is General Lee your grandfather?!

 

[Steve]

"0% Dixie. Need help digging out of the snow?"

Guilty as charged, but I'm not a Yankee...... ;-)

 

[tony barnhill]

Original: 99% Dixie. Is General Lee your grandfather?!

Advanced: 100% Dixie. Is General Lee your grandfather?!

 

[RonMacPherson]

79% southern, sons of the confederate on one side and Grand Army on the other. Maternal grandparents moved from Oklahoma to California, where I was born.....

or moon pies!

 

[drooartz]

25% Dixie. You are a dandy Yankee Doodle.

Born and raised in Rhode Island, though I've lived out of state for 19 years now. They even got question "What is the drink made from ice cream and milk churned together" correct -- it's a cabinet (only in RI).

 

[aeronca65t]

13% for me, but that's surely too high!

By the way Q6 does not give an adequate choice for virually all the folks I know. When asked:

<span style="font-style: italic">"How do you or the people in your area greet others?"</span>

We all say:

<span style="font-style: italic">"How's it going?" </span> <span style="text-decoration: underline">or</span> <span style="font-style: italic">"What's going on?"</span>

And if they really wanted to separate the midwesterners they should have mentioned ~Vernors~

Or even " ~grinders~ "

<span style="font-style: italic">Note: You'll hear "hoagie", "submarine" or "hero" in New Jersey.</span>

Also: Who *actually* says "purty"? I thought that was only on TV by people who are paid to say it.

I kinda felt the gal that put that together knew very little or nothing about the South. And she may well have been a Southerner.

 

[martx-5]

0% Dixie here...of course, I was born in Brooklyn and raised on Long Island where I still live.

 

[aerog]

They missed an opportunity with what to call a drink like "Pepsi" or "Coke". Soda, Pop, soft-drink, "coke", or tonic - all say a lot.
