Are You a Yankee or a Rebel?

Because it’s a hot (OK, lukewarm) topic on a super sekrit message board where I post, I present to you: Are You a Yankee or a Rebel?

97% Dixie. Is General Lee your grandfather?!

No, in point of fact, he is not (although my college girlfriend was born in the same county he was), but my Grandfather Ekmark did have a picture on the wall of his study featuring an elderly confederate soldier asking “Forget? Hell, no!”

Yankees will be shot on sight, y’all.

(Source. And my goodness, Canadian women certainly tan dark when they actually get a chance to see the sun in between attacks by the polar bear armies, although I suppose said armies have retreated for the summer and the beaver and moose offensive hasn’t really taken off yet.)

  1. 72% Dixie. Your neck must be a little pink!

    This is mainly because I make an effort not to sound like a hic. Otherwise, it would be a lot higher Dixie.

  2. 38% Dixie. You are definitely a Yankee.

    No real surprise here. Christ, I’m surprised I didn’t register as Canadian or even British…

  5. My answer came out a little long.

    87% Dixie. Your ancestors have many towns and counties named after them in the south, including many in Arkansas and Georgia. However, unlike Beau’s ancestors, none of them married their cousins and continue in this tradition today.
