I got the following:
66% (Dixie). A definitive Southern score!

I was born in Tampa, Florida (spent 3 years in Michigan) and then I've been in Texas for 19 years.

This was a fun break from work.

Normally that would be the logical conclusion!

only 35% Yankee--grew up in Michigan, and everything said "common to the Great Lakes region" so I though it would be much higher! But I live in the South now....the one question: How do you address a group of people? "you guys" wasn't a choice, and it should have been. Should have chosen "ya'll" because I'm saying that more now...as well as soda instead of pop. My sister in Louisana still stubbornly clings to "pop" as a form as identification, refuses to say soda.

I totally agree "you guys" should have been a choice.

While I have conceded to using the phrase Ya'll, I too REFUSE to say soda! My son has taken on my habit of saying Pop but my husband pretends not to know what we're talking about unless we ask for "soda"

As I've said b4 I recently moved to GA. In Hawai'i, we use soda. When I first got to GA my DH and I went to a party and the host, my hubby's commander's wife, asked me if I wanted some pop and I have to admit for a minute I had no clue what she was talking about. I remember my grandparents using the words pop and cola. My sister's hubby is from Chicago and he uses soda pop.

LOL, because the "Mississippi" dixie answer is "Coke". It doesn't matter if it's pepsi, coca cola, pibb, dr pepper, whatever, it's always called "Coke". DH (who's from the Pacific NW) was confused when he moved here and was offered a "coke" and it would be a dr pepper or a pepsi.

When my hubby goes to the store, he asks if I want a coke and I say sure. Then he says what kind? And I answer Diet Dr Pepper. We catch a lot of heck for that when we go visit my dad's family in NC.
