What?!? Just 75% Dixie?!? I don’t think so unless you consider Texas as more western than southern. I have to strongly disagree with at least one of the answers.

“Tp-ing” is Texan, not “wrapping.” No, you tp a house and you wrap a present.

I agree with the Tp-ing too. I only got a 60% but I guess they didn’t factor in Southern Louisiana, accents different here and through it has more in common with the South there are a few things like the cot-caught issue that make it different.

But damnit when the waitress asks me for a drink and I say Coke she better ask what kind!

...I usually go for Dr. Pepper.

You're either a youngun or a transplant. We wrapped houses deep in the heart of Texas in the early to mid 60s. I never even heard of TP'ing until I moved to California almost 10 years after I'd wrapped my last house.
