I'm 40% Yankee

Guess that's not bad for being down here for 3 years. Dopple-G's been here for twice as long and he's still 39% yankee. How 'bout y'all? Find out how much yankee blood you have here.

(Hat tip to Dopple-G)

1 37% (Yankee). You have a good Yankee score. "When God made me born a Yankee, he was only kidding"

2 If I did the points thing, I would offer points for the source of my quote above. However, I have to admit it kinda' scares me what the source might reveal about me... (And I wrote it from memory - the actual source may differ slightly.)

4 43% Yankee, thank you very much. I think it was the "Rolling" that lowered my score.

5 44% I'm actually surprised it's still this high. In the last 5 years, I've lived in 4 different states - all of them south of Masie-Dixie.

6 45% (Yankee). There are traces of Yankee in you. Is this good or bad?

7 It's not too bad, Tiffani. Traces of yankee can be removed with consumption of suitable amounts of grits and/or collard greens. If you're willing to take these measures then you have nothing to worry about. If you let it fester though you'll find your yankitude growing beyond your ability to correct it.

8 35% Yankee. Most of my answers were common to the Great Lakes region. What a surprise!

9 Wow! 38% yankee, and I have lived in Texas for over 20 years now, I guess old habits are hard to break.

10 Good God! I scored on 49%!!! I was born and raised in Maine! To be fair tho, I haven't lived there since I was 19 - which is way too long ago - so maybe 49% is still good. It must really be something to listen to me - tawkin' bout takin' my cah down thaya to tha brew thru for a pop or a beya, ya'll! Yeah, I've lived all over the US courtesy of the US Navy so I tend to be a hybrid of it all.

11 49% Yankee. Erm... Mind you, I crashed and burned on the first question: How do you pronounce Aunt? o Like the word want o Like the word ant o Like the word caught o I pronounce them all the same In Australia (and, I think, England) all of these have different vowel sounds. Apparently, there are more vowels in Australian english than in U.S. english. Oh, and the tiny lobster that crawls around in creek bottoms is a yabbie.
