Ok...something's wrong with that quiz. I grew up in the South and everybody (I thought) did the majority of that stuff. I still have a grease can and Tupac is alive. Has no one else seen the signs?

I got 144. Just for the record, I'm caucasian.

ETA: In my defense...Just a little clarification on a few...

If you've ever run a race barefoot in the middle of the street.
*Why is this ghetto fab?

You had a candy lady in your neighborhood.
*Why is this ghetto fab?

If you ever had to pick your own switch or belt.
*And this?

If you have ever had to walk to school or walked home from
school.
*And this?

6. If you have ever used dishwashing liquid for bubble bath.
*And this?

7. If you ever mixed Kool-Aid one glass at a time because you got
tired of other people drinking up the Kool-Aid you just made.
*And this?

8. If you have ever played any of the following games: hide and go
seek, freeze tag, momma may I?, or red light/green light
*And this FOR REAL? What do "non ghetto fab" kids do?

If you've ever had reusable bacon grease in a container on your stove
*SOUTHERN not ghetto fab!

The batteries in you remote control ever been held in by a piece of tape.
*It's called thriftiness.

If you've ever used tussy.
*Umm...what else was there at the corner store?? I thought this was what everyone used at first.

If you have a friend or family member whose nickname is one word said twice: Dee-Dee, Fee-Fee, Man-Man, Kay-Kay, Lee-Lee, Ree-Ree, Ray-Ray, Nay-Nay, etc.
*Ok...Rae Rae (Raven) and Tae Tae (Octavius as a child) - what's the problem?

If you've ever worn house shoes outside of the house.
*When you're going to the grocery store at 3 AM, why not??

You use "nem" to describe a certain group of people (for example Craig nem' or momma nem')
*Must be a Southern thing.

Your child drops his/her pacifier and you sanitize it by sucking it.
*So?

And I have a few more points!

1) Ruint is a word!!
2) Since obviously I'm ghetto fab (don't know how that happened) has anyone else taken a shower in a bathtub that has no shower head? My ex's mother lived in public housing and they just had bathtubs...no shower head whatsoever. So we'd take a pitcher into the bathroom to shower with. Am I really the ONLY person who's done this??

Please, let me know!
