How Southern are you? - Page 2

"(refers to the US south)"
Mexicans don't count as Southerners.
I noticed some seemed to be wondering.
Additionally, residents of the South Pole aren't Southern.

You scored a 84% on the "How Southern Are You?" Quizie!

Texas. It's like a whole other world.

Garth Vader · May 12, 2003, 16:20

48%, Despite being one of the farthest north of our North American posters

MichaeltheGreat · May 12, 2003, 16:21

Yeah, it is, Tex. 84% for me also.

DD and JohnT are clearly closet carpetbaggers. Let's get some rope.

SlowwHand · May 12, 2003, 16:24

Got one, Michael.
Position that horse, would you please ?

I have the impression that southern USians are polite people.

Then someone told me that unlike Greece where you can get into an argument, shout, even curse but it doesn't have much chances on this getting to the exchange of blows or anything, in Texas if a Texan becomes pissed at you, it's over, he gets the gun out and better luck in the next world.

Is that true or what?

SlowwHand · May 12, 2003, 16:59

Only with old-timers like me.

Nothing closet about me... I moved down South (note the proper capitalization) when I was but a year old. I've been doing my best to catch up, but being in Atlanta didn't help my Southernization. After all, all we Atlantans know about the Old South is Coca-Cola and GWTW.

BUT AT LEAST I'M STILL HERE, MIKEY!!!!!!!!!

It is very, very uncommon to see two sober strangers yell at each other, and it's almost guaranteed that on the rare times you do see it, and if one party curses, the other party will ask him not to curse - "Please don't take the Lord's name in vain!" is a common refrain in Southern fights.

And no, that's not true of Texas, it's just the image they want to portray.

The reason why they didn't score as high:

1) Neither DD nor JohnT are racist.

2) DD and JohnT most likely brush their teeth.

I scored a 48% on the "How Southern Are You?" Quizie! What about you?

But there's some problem: I'm German (west and southwest) and of course answered the questions as German.

I'm afraid to take the quiz -- I might find out I'm a closeted Southerner.

SlowwHand · May 13, 2003, 20:18

WTF? Might as well join the closet-free generation.
