Is there possibly a "How Rhode Island Are You?" quiz?...

If you have the physical ability to do meth and/or heroin, you have a little bit of Missouri in you.

Also, bonus points if your property has two of the three things that are a characteristic of rural Southern Missouri.

1) Unattended fires
2) DIY Junkyard of everything and anything
3) Barefoot, shirtless kids running around dirty

I passed as about 50% Texan. Some I knew and some I could only guess at.

I did live in Galena Park Texas for a little while. But I didn't know any of the answers so thankfully none of it rubbed off on me.

I'm 75% Texan fair enough for spending nearly a year of my life at Lackland AFB and then Sheppard AFB up in Wichita Falls.

I remember during basic at Lackland two drunken San Antonio residents passed out in our drill pad. Needless to say they got a rude awakening when every TI in the squadron made a circle around the two and started yelling. They jumped up and ran away towards the main gate so fast.

If you're 75% Texan after a year, you must be yodeling around in Lederhosen with a stein since you've been here.

But you can test yourself how German you are. I scored 67% - well, 3 percent more than the average.

29% less than average. Not very German at all. I have friends who tell me otherwise.

Schade, I’m only 57% German, according to the very lustig “how German am I” test from Hipstery.com. Below the average of 64%. See if you can beat my score, Nachmacher.
I think the question about the skirt doomed me, I had no idea what that was about

I am B positive blood type the type of the nomads, supposedly those with B blood type do not strictly follow social norms and easily adapt to the culture they are in. Maybe that is true or I just happen to have those personality traits.

In school this trait got me trouble as I did not strictly adhere to the social group I was supposed to be a part of and teachers find that suspicious.

I have almost always aced job interviews though because I usually can read the interviewer I really love panel interviews where the ones who you will actually work with are present.

I'd make a great human intelligence gatherer.
