39% rebel...but the answers seemed to focus on the deep south/midwest/northeast regions. We zany Californians and our uniquely annoying accent were totally absent like totally? oh my guh-od?.

Two words: Howdy. Y'all.

I've heard 'em called Potato Bugs too. I always prefered Roly-Poly (my answer) or Pill Bug myself Smiley: clown

24% Dixie. You are a Yankee Doodle Dandy.

Hooray #24 for Bob Probert.

Reminds me of the time I visited Mammoth Cave with an ex in Kentucky. Stopped at a gas station to ask where we could buy some wine or alcohol and the cashier said "Dry County". I asked, "Where's that?" Again, she replied "Dry County". >.> /sinks in :P

96% Dixie. Is General Lee your grandfather?!


I thought I'd be more like 50% since my mom's side of the family is from Atlanta, GA and my dad's side of the family is from Gettysburg, PA. Then again, growing up in Maryland just south of the Mason-Dixie line, I guess I picked up more southern words than northern words.

Funny, I always called them potato bugs - a term I picked up from my southern grandparents.

Being that I was born and raised in Massachusetts I'm not surprized. I almost clicked on 'tonic' as my aUnt calls it that.
I prefer being called a Red Sox thankyouverymuch.
