They had me at the road that goes along a highway. Apparently only Houstonians refer to thisas the "feeder". Houston Irving Garland
Damn this is pretty accurate. Houston, Jackson, Birmingham. Most of us that got Houston was on that "feeder road" question lol. Weird nobody else uses that term.
For me, it gave Long Beach (CA), Glendale (CA), and Houston. Long Beach and Glendale because I refer to insects that glow as "fireflys" -- not that I use the term that often.
it gave me Houston, Irving and Ft Worth. if it had my birth town Shreveport I would have been even more impressed.
Well at least I've been to one of the cities it picked, tallahassee, if just for a weekend. Never been near little rock or amarillo. But just like those behavior/personality inventories, where I could honestly give almost any answer to so many of their questions, these things don't work well for me either. I think for this one I've been polluted with too much television. Different pronunciations seemed equally right. I even have to make conscious choices among them just trying to speak naturally. Whenever I was familiar with multiple terms like lightning bug/firefly etc., I just chose what I hear most often around here. I can't believe I can't keep that stuff straight.
I chose the one I assume is the most "official" or grammatically correct, admittedly based on TV (Firefly) and Garmin (F-R-T-G road). Pop is from Punch-Out and Coke is a brand.
You guys realize that it can peg Houston with just one question right? The Houston area is the only place where the term "feeder road" is used.
Wow there were a lot of questions, how'd you isolate that? I did use feeder. Must have messed up somewhere else.
I thought he somehow isolated that question, that answering feeder automatically results in houston. Because I don't think that's the case.
I must have clicked something other than feeder by mistake then. HOw did you figure that out btw, that feeder automatically returns houston regardless of how the rest of the questions are answered?
I never knew only Houston uses feeder, I thought it was the standard lol I wonder why. I used feeder but it didn't give me Houston, it gave me SF, San Jose and Hawaii. I've never heard of rubbernecking and a couple of other things, probably because I don't really drive. Lol
You do realize that by doing this, you're basically ruining the point of the quiz? "Out-smarting it", if you will. I used the terms I heard in my local area growing up, although they're not what I use in day-to-day speech, and it pegged me correctly. (Well, it said Austin, but that's close enough to Houston for me).
After each question you see a "heat map" of where your results are most commonly found. Feeder road results in Houston being highlighted. When I moved out West I quickly discovered that no one has any clue what you're saying if you say "take the feeder road".
Still didn't get Houston lol I don't have words for some of the questions, I have no idea what you would call rain while the sun is out, the grass between the sidewalk and street, what you call people that look at accidents and I've ever specifically called an easy class a "blow-off", or anything really, just an "easy class" lol
