57% Dixie, barely in Dixieland. No offense to the Rebels, but I always saw myself as more of a Yankee. Guess that's what happens when you live in the "Old Line" state!

I took the second one and got a whopping 0%. But sadly, there is no snow around these parts (just a slight dusting), but plenty of cold.

"100% Dixie. Is General Lee your grandfather?!"

(Long test result.)

No surprise there...

This thread is STILL around? I guess ALL Americans are considered Yanks when they are in another country. So maybe I'm both.

In our area (the South), there are alot of Yanks that have converted! So, maybe they are Rebels with a Yankee accent???

Came in at 45% Dixie. Almost half of my life in the South, now almost half of my diction. <<Sigh>>

48% Dixie despite being born and raised in Philadelphia. Huh? Must be my Virginia-born grandmother's influence.

I'm "definitely a Yankee" -- but 38% Dixie! How did that happen??? I'm a born and bred NY'er!
But I left the bug and toilet paper questions blank -- never used a word for either.
