I got 48% Yankee which is hilarious as Ive only visited the South on a few occassions and my family are ALL Yankees.

 

[MinnieM21]

I'm 58% Dixie!

edited: I realized I wrote 54, instead of 58

 

[HomeSweetDisney]

I am 76% Dixie. That is a pretty strong Southern score!

Not surprised by this as I've lived in the south most of my life

 

[jrydberg]

I'm "Permission denied"

 

[2MuchOhana]

40 % Yankee. But it said definitely a Yankee! I grew up in Wisconsin! Guess the living down south here in Missouri is starting to take over!

[becka]

50% Dixie

I guess since I am from Missouri it makes sense that I would be half and half.

 

[lissawynn]

58% Dixie which is hysterical since I'm born and bred in PA.

 

[NMAmy]

I'm 54% Dixie. I grew up in Michigan and live there again but spent a long time in New Mexico and I'm friends with a bunch of Texans. Some of it must have rubbed off but I'm confused because the majority of my answers all said, "Common in the Great Lakes area" or "Common in Michigan."

 

[DisneyArk]

I'm from Arkansas and (surprise) I'm 98% Dixie dialect.

That quiz made me laugh! I didn't know that a "Roly poly" had other nicknames!

 

[Idahomom]

57% dixie.

 

[noodles]

50% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category.

Born and raised in the Northwest.

I was so happy to claim "Yankee all the way" that I didn't even read the OP before voting.

That's okay, I know I talk the talk too.

 

[Crankyshank]

44% Yankee, which is kind of odd considering none of my responses mentioned the South, and 3/4 of them are from the northeast

 

[dizdelight]

WOW! 86% Dixie, y'all!

 

[johnsonet]

Thankfully, I'm 75% DIXIE

 

[Beth76]

I got 52% Dixie-ack! From St. Louis, right in the middle I guess.

 

[cadburysmom]

56% Barely Dixie...I'm pretty shocked at that...I definitely consider myself more of a Southerner than that!

 

[julie_yet]

66% Dixie but I already knew that.

 

[Bichon Barb]

It was correct--Great Lakes--which only gives me a 48 percent Yankee.

 

[helenabear]

81% Dixie... lived in Ohio all my life...
