Ghostie	Date: April 25, 2006 @ 10:33 PM http://www.alphadictionary.com/articles/yankeetest.html you'll need that!!
ShadowMom	Date: April 25, 2006 @ 10:47 PM 53% Barely in Dixie!! Y'all...
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: April 25, 2006 @ 10:49 PM Well I'm an ex-pat Brit who is now Canadian but took the test for fun and am 28% Dixie according to the test. Howdy Ma'am , Yee-hah y'all!
JasonJSmoke	Date: April 25, 2006 @ 10:50 PM I took that thing and scored like 68%, I cant win really, I was raised in Wv, lived in Pa, And now live in Ala.
TameasDust	Date: April 25, 2006 @ 10:51 PM 9% Dixie. You are as Yankee as they get!!
TameasDust	Date: April 25, 2006 @ 11:20 PM
JasonJSmoke	Date: April 25, 2006 @ 11:23 PM Gene needs to take this test.
Israfel	Date: April 25, 2006 @ 11:24 PM 38% Definitely a yankee
GeneHilbert	Date: April 25, 2006 @ 11:27 PM 83% Dixie. Do you still use Confederate money? Damn Right.......
Israfel	Date: April 25, 2006 @ 11:53 PM I'm pretty sure Gene's got gumbo running through his veins.
hate9wicket	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 12:06 AM 36% Dixie. You are definitely a Damn Yankee. (that's the 36% talking right there)
sinai	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 8:46 AM 39%... the other 61% of me is very likeable though, i swear!
sinai	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 8:47 AM and Gene only got an 83%? i think the test has a 17% margin of error.
shadowself	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 9:10 AM "24% Dixie. You are a Yankee Doodle Dandy." How coult 'cot' possibly sound different than 'caught'???
HerSweetSoli...	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 9:14 AM 38% Dixie. You are definitely a Yankee. Whooo.
evansorchid	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 10:01 AM 54% Dixie....Barely in Dixie. I always called it a Beer Barn..
kingo	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 10:07 AM "how could 'cot' possibly sound different than 'caught'???" How could it not? Cot sounds like not, or knot, and caught sounds like fought. GODDAMMIT. I'm 55% dixie. Whatever the hell that means. I never called a drive thru liquor store anything other than a drive thru liquor store. And the little things that curl up when you touch 'em are potato bugs, and that isn't even in the list.
Distilled1	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 10:12 AM 50%
EvilPicnic	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 11:57 AM 63%. This test is fucked. 7. How do you address a group of people? You(se) guys You all Youse You'uns, yins Y'all What about simply, 'Hello'? 8. What kind of sale is it on the front lawn? Rummage sale Tag sale Yard sale Garage sale No 'jumble sale'? I say hardly any of those things...
TameasDust	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 12:23 PM wtf is a jumble sale
kingo	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 12:55 PM My guess is it's the same thing as a rummage sale, yard sale, garage sale, tag sale. Although I just call it "crap in the yard."
desiderata	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 1:04 PM Hey, picnicking man, you wouldn't address a group of people as Hello. "I'm looking foward to hanging out with y'all/you guys/youse/hello"
kingo	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 1:10 PM What made ME mad about that one was that there wasn't a choice for "you guys." Because for fuck's sake, "youse guys" is NOT the same thing as "you guys." Because I say "you guys," but I had to pick "you all," because if the computer thought that I'm one of those people who says "youse guys" I'd have to kill it. THEN what would I do all day?
shadowself	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 1:28 PM kingo: How could it not? Cot sounds like not, or knot, and caught sounds like fought. You're messing with me, right? All of those words rhyme! cot, fought, dot, knot, thought, shot, bought...
shadowself	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 1:30 PM I picked "you guys" even though I was wincing at the "youse guys", which I thought was very American. They should have been two totally different choices.
EvilPicnic	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 1:54 PM desiderata, I wouldn't say any of that. Hmmm maybe I misunderstood the question a little. I would say, "I'm looking forward to hanging out with you lot", perhaps in that context. But when addressing a group I normally just do a general hello, hi or hey and then greet individuals. A jumble sale is when a group of families (or more often, a scout troop) gather all their useless crap, stick it on the church lawn and sell it cheaply to passers by. Is that close to what all the others mean? I don't think it really works when you're not american.
K3VIN	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 2:12 PM 31% Dixie. You are definitely a Yankee. Some of that slang and stuff i use in the great lakes and it says not in great lakes lol

kingo	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 2:19 PM 1. "youse guys" = American? I guess I'll give you that, although it's definitely just a particular subset. I don't think of it as a southern thing so much as a backwoods thing. I grew up around a lot of yous guys. 2. I wish I could even hear in my head how you're pronouncing cot caught fought hot got knot not... all the same. I can't figure out which sound you're using. 3. EvilPicnic - what you just described is what I'd call a flea market. Or a white elephant sale. When multiple people get together and do that sort of sale somewhere. Yard sales and garage sales and rummage sales to me usually mean just one household doing the selling.
kingo	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 2:22 PM Did I just write all that out loud?
desiderata	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 2:29 PM I hope not, because if you did you just got caught. You here me? You got cot!
victorsskull	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 2:31 PM 23% dixie
shadowself	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 2:36 PM Okay, if "caught" does not sound like "cot", what DOES it sound like? Doesn't naught sound like not?
desiderata	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 2:40 PM Caught sound like ought which sounds like saying awww and then adding a t at the end.
kingo	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 2:44 PM Naught doesn't sound not. I'm getting the impression that you don't use anything that sounds like not.
desiderata	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 3:13 PM Naught sounds like caught and ought and awwwwt. I bet hot sounds like not.
GeneHilbert	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 3:18 PM sure.... snot, rot, forgot, plot, shot, cot, and not caught, fought, sought, naught, ought,
shadowself	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 3:25 PM YOU'RE MAKING ME CRY!!!!
shadowself	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 3:26 PM So does the "o" in "not" sound like the "a" in Boston?
desiderata	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 3:29 PM That's not a good means of comparison. NO ONE knows how to say Boston.
BOWILLIE	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 3:32 PM a good yankee is one that visits the south a damn yankee is one that stays
GeneHilbert	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 4:02 PM I lived in Boston for about a year. My landlord loved my voice so much, whenever she would visit she would make me say "Park the car in Harvard yard".
imemine	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 4:11 PM That’s: “Pahk the cah in the hahvahd yahd”
EchoMinor	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 4:25 PM 81% Dixie. Do you still use Confederate money? damn...guess i cant always use that florida is not part of the south excuse...
AdNauseam	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 4:55 PM 29% Dixie. You are a Yankee Doodle Dandy. New England and proud of it!
LiQuidMetamo...	Date: April 26, 2006 @ 10:13 PM evil picnic is a Brit so I get where he's coming from, diapers are nappies, garage sales are jumble sales, dumpsters are skips, the faucet is called a tap, a car hood is called a bonnet, etc. We are quaint. Now I'm Canadianized my wife wants to trade me in for another person who speaks with a British accent
EchoMinor	Date: April 27, 2006 @ 12:00 AM im proud of my dixiehood, 90% of my family lives in alabama, and bessimer alabama especially. i dont really have a southern accent but on occasion i do go fishing and visit the county agriculture fair every year lol
farfor44	Date: April 30, 2006 @ 2:01 PM I'm ed bieng from northern Indiana..I scored 70% just below the Mason-Dixon line,but my family originally comes from Virginia and so.eastern Kentucky however I've lived most of my life near lake Michigan..In Michigan and Indiana
