I guess one the the biggest ones for me is with being a Texan: I do say "y'all", have had and ride horses, I love barbeque and true Mexican food but not so much Tex-Mex, hate grits, I have a hunting dog even though I don't hunt, but I do have guns, which are not on a rack in my car nor a truck. I also have not met or partied with the Ewings from Dallas, and amazingly enough still get asked that. Though Texas is very much into football, I am not. I am so about rugby, tennis, and hockey. Though, if football gets recorded and watched on fast forward, then I am good to go.
