46% YANKEE Was that ever off!!!!! We paper houses around here and they said that was unique to NYC. Things like this skewed my score.

One thing I thought was strange was that some of the options were unique to the Northeast and Texas. How strange is that??? Gina, around here, a popular prank is for teenagers to "paper" someone's yard. They toss toilet paper rolls in the trees, shrubs, everywhere during the night. They unroll over everything. The dew makes it stick, so you wake up to quite a mess in the morning. We've, fortunately never had it happen to us. We've had our cars egged and had to go the the carwash first thing, but never been papered. Both activities are considered malicious mischief and are misdimenors.

Diana, you are right, if this gets out, I'm in a world of hurt!!! I'd probably get papered!!

We call it TP-ing up here. That stands for toilet paper-ing! There's another question for their survey!!

Actually the kids have a new one that they do now. It's called forking. They get a lot of cheap plastic forks and stand them up all over a person's yard. Our youth pastor has had it done several times. Each time the finger has been pointed to my daughter, imagine that!! She's only been involved once, I think. We always get blamed for any pranks that are played!

45% (Yankee). Barely into the Yankee category. I was raised in Jersey and moved to Texas/Oklahoma at 19.

I can't believe you would even think of doing this!!!! And I thought you were my friends!!!

Forking would never work around here, the Saint Augustine grass is too deep, the forks would get lost. There is a church youth group in the area that will put pink flamingo's in someone's yard for a fee. The go back and pick them up and recycle them.

I've never TP'd anything - but I did go cow tipping in my younger days.
