Well, I won't dispute you, but unless you lived in close proximity of Vidalia, Georgia, you probably had a California, Texas or Florida onion, of the "Vidalia" variety. There is something special about a true Vidalia. I would easily choose one over a generic garden variety apple, any day!

Now, that said... If we're talking a Vidalia vs. a nice big juicy Red Delicious from Washington state... maybe I'd take the apple. I see your point. It is interesting to note, however, when I lived in Vidalia, they had the annual Vidalia Festival, where they held a cooking contest which featured things like, Vidalia Onion Ice Cream, and Vidalia Onion Pie... (it's better than it sounds) It's also of interest to note, one of the only fruit flavors of jello and fountain drinks to never make it big, is apple.

I drive through Vidalia at least twice a year on my way to FL. This coming year I'll do so more often, as my son is doing an 8 month internship in security at DW.
 
I love Granny Smith apples... No, I don't care how good of an onion it is, an apple is the choice...
 
Silly title to this thread...

"Is Dixie Lying?"

Answer: If he is typing words... He is lying!
 
If it has putrasweet in it I can tell the difference. Nutripidsweet leaves a taste in my mouth for hours and sort of burns my taste buds.
 
So far, 60% is the best anyone has done. I guess you turkeys just want to flap your wings and act like turkeys, instead of taking the challenge. It's okay, I don't blame you, I would be afraid of being embarrassed too.

I don't understand. How would that be classified as such? It's a fairly simple test, not designed to embarrass you or anything, just to see if you can tell which statements are lies and which are the truth. I understand why you won't do it, because then, you wouldn't get to chortle along with your insulting put-downs, like... 'if Dixie's typing, he's lying!'

'Wallow with the hogs' is a southern colloquialism, meaning... to lose dignity and become dirty, vile and corrupt, with the dirty, vile and corrupted. I hate to tell you this, but you are already there, and practicing your 'wallowing' here daily!

Only because I haven't taken the stupid quiz yet, but then again, I haven't claimed that you lie, so I don't feel compelled.

Okay, this is a simple game, all you have to do, is determine whether or not Dixie is lying. You have 20 statements listed below, some of them are true and some of them are a lie. You can't use Google to cheat and find out, you have to trust your instincts and your own intelligence, to determine if they are true or false. Since I am the best judge of whether I am lying or not, I will be the one to grade your results. The winner will receive much praise and admiration from me, and the losers will receive ridicule and scorn, as usual. Ready? Set? GO!
