Well, this is silly: 47% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category. (Give yourself the quiz here.
At least two of the questions I couldn't answer at all.
7. How do you address a group of people?
You all
Youse
You'uns, yins
Y'all
My answer is "none of the above". I say, "you".
20. What's that bug that rolls into a ball when you touch it? (NOTE: This is not a doodle bug (ant lion), which is the larvae of Myrmeleontidae spp.)
Roly poly
Pillbug
Potato bug
Sow bug
I never heard of such a bug.
And as for this one
12. What is spread onto the tops of cakes?
Frosting
Icing
Don't know
No answer
I said "frosting", but only because I couldn't choose two answers. "Frosting" and "icing" are two different things, but they both go on the tops of cakes.
