SnP's Southron Litmus Test, v1.0

SouthernN'Proud

Southern Discomfort
In response to a request elsewhere, I present a work-in-progress. The SnP Southron Litmus Test. The test will be refined/expanded over time until it stands alone as the one true measuring instrument for transplanted yankees who desire to get right with God and become true Southroners. Well, as true as a transplant can get anyway. I mean, there's only so much perfection one can hope to attain without being born into it and all. But in admiration of those hardy souls who strive for a better life despite their inborn handicap(s), the following quiz should at least let y'all know how much work you still have to do. As updates are made to the test, future versions will be published. Just start with this for now, K?

Were we supposed to make the answers public? Then the yankees would know them.

Sir, where have you been? Have you not been paying attention? Have you EVER been able to tell a yankee a DAMN thing? You could tattoo the answers to their arms and they still wouldn't get it...too busy building a gate around their "community" and telling us what all we're doing wrong to ever learn anything.
