I got this in an email, and thought it was quite hilarious!
I scored 89% dixie, and was a little bit insulted (seeing as how I am a fourth generation Texan), but I have spent time outside of the south which could be to blame for the low score.
So, take the quiz and report back....
Are you a yankee? A dixie?

P.S. Lindsay, this post is just for you. I was going to post about opening day of the baseball season, and decided I would wait to see how the game goes tonight. You were spared this time!

I'm apparently 87% Dixie--I can't believe my score was lower than yours!
Your boy just hit a homerun. We're having to listen to it in Spanish--FSN's audio is messed up!
Could it be your TV, because I have english on FSN...
and could he be any cuter??? oh my gosh that smile melts me everytime.....God I pray this season he and Morgan play to the fullest of their ability. We will return to the playoffs if those two things happen....
my boy :)
I don't know what it is--every other channel is correct...
67% dixie
Hmmm. I was born in the North and moved down here after the war of Northern aggression.
But I think we are kinda a melting pot when it comes to words. There are so many other influences..
LIKE.. the Ya'll word.. Sometimes I say ya'll and some times I say youse. Which I think that mean I may just be ones of THOSE yankees...
And on the baseball note.. I don't have cable. So I hope they actually have a few of those games on the 'tv'. I would much rather watch than listen.
apparently i'm a freak cuz i scored a 49% and they said i was barely yankee. i'm a midwest girl for sure but i think it's funny i'm right in the middle. i'm almost a yankdix.
or a freak. :)
Laura, I think I read in the paper that 25 games out of 162 were going to be on regular TV..... i will try to let you know when those are!
Terri, yankdix...that is hilarious! and funny that you were almost perfectly half and half.....
Cara, you think you are more of a dixie than I? Why the surprise at my score being higher? what gives?!?!?
Is your FSN working tonight?
58% Dixie....I'm "barely into the dixie category".....I'm not to blame!! My parents moved me up to MinnesOOta before I was 1. But we got back as fast as we could. You know, by way of Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Florida....
FSN is in Espanol in the living room and English in our bedroom. Crazy. We chose the spanish version b/c we liked how the announcer said 'Meester Wheeler'!
Just because I was prodded...
I took the test, and I had to take it twice because there were a couple of questions that I could have answered two different ways. So one way I took it gave me a 49%, and the other way I took it gave me a 53%. I think that just goes to prove what I've said all along; (most) people from the midwest (cities, not rural areas) don't have accents and are just normal. :)
Normal?!?!?!
Is that really the theory you are going with?
thanks for taking the test....which questions did you answer differently? just out of curiosity....
