Seven Ways to Know You're in Carolina

Note that some of these may not be specific to Carolina, but they were discovered within that state.
  1. "Suh" used in a sentence, as in you say, "Excuse me" and he says, "Yes, Suh!"
  2. A jar of Moon Pies by the cash register at a restaurant. 
  3. Giant, green lawns in front of every house. Lawns the size of football fields.
  4. "Sup" used in a sentence, as in "Join us for kayak and sup!"
  5. Brick. All buildings apparently must be brick and boxy with columns. I hear they call this style, "Colonial", but I think of it as, "Frat House".
  6. New Jersey accents. I hear they have these in New Jersey, too, but they really stand out in the Carolinas.
  7. Monster trucks! The home of Grave Digger! Yes, THE Grave Digger!
And, there were birds. More on that later.
