68% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

I should be more as I have only lived in OK(28 yrs) and TX (8 yrs).

Why is pop a northern word? I have used that word for as long as I can remember!

My mom was from Arkansas (pronounced our Kansas for effect) and dad was from Utard and I was raised in SoCal. I scored 55% Dixie. I guess Redneck overpowers Mormonism

Who considers Oklahoma part of the south?

I'm currently living in Charlottesville, VA (home to Thomas Jefferson and the University of Virginia) and people (mostly Northerners) try to tell me that we're in the south . . . I'm like, "No way, no one here sells Sweet Tea, there's like one BBQ place in town, and I had to drive 650 miles north to get here!"

And most of Florida is really displaced Northerners (though the rest are hard core rednecks akin to South GA or AL).

Too bad I'm Canadian?

It's funny that Northerners, i.e. Yankees, will move to the south to retire, but you never hear about Southerners moving to the north to retire...

kinda weird since i was born and raised in MA, thought that would have made it closer to 100% yankee.

44% Yankee Close enough!

In reference to Homer's reaction to the toilet in the Simpson's episode where they go to Australia...

...And the home of the brave! *wiping tear from my eye*
