You've never lived here though. I lived in South Charlotte, Charlotte has plenty in common with South Carolina...
North Carolina has plenty in common with South Carolina. Anyone saying they feel "nothing" alike just aren't well-versed in what they are seeing or what to look for. You also said there's "nothing" southern about Maryland or DC or Baltimore or Northern Virginia, all of which is false, so your geographical perceptive tastes aren't the most trustworthy lol...
nikka, I know you've never lived here because NCers go to SC all the time

. Charlotteans be in SC all the time, you got NCers from all over the state who be down in SC...
Everything I like about Carolina is in NC but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate SC. SC is too hot for me. Racism is everywhere in the US but SC is a bit too racist, too slow for me, it's biggest cities are too small for me. So I prefer NC of the two but plenty muhfukkas love SC...
