    Yeah, I know. I found some of their regional classifications kind of dubious. I'd say 95% of my answers were "Found most everywhere in the U.S.", but somehow I was barely a Yankee. How do they make those distinctions?

    They should have asked about Ale 8 One and Goo Goo Clusters.

    I could have answered a few of those various ways, depending on day, mood, and interpretation. Spent 5 years of my life in Texas, the rest in southern Ohio, plus have family scattered about. The score that it gave me for my effort was a 47% Dixie. Barely in Yankeedom.

    I've always heard the one to do with soft drinks in the South. Even if you order a Pepsi, it's a Coke, no matter what.
    Down Kentucky way growing up it was a Pop. THe Coke was out in Texas, every where you went it a Coke.

    Oh, I scored a 73%, but I grew up in KY, lived in New Mexico for 7 yrs, and Texas for 7 yrs and Cincinnati for 3, so I've spent most of my time in the south or west, so... Party Barn it was.

    I know what you mean. The soft-drink question is one where I use nearly all the terms interchangeably. And "tennis shoes" gradually became "sneakers" because I haven't picked up a racquet in 15 years.

    I came up 76% Dixie, which isn't surprising, since I've lived nearly my entire life in the south. I take exception to the last question, tho. Always called them Doodle Bugs.

    The Drive Thru Liquor Store threw me. We have them. We just call them "Drive Thrus" though.
