I can attest to the fact that culture is difficult to find in SC.
Several months ago. My family stayed in Virginia. I prefer the climate here. You prefer humidity, gnats, and the KKK?

That's framing, again. If all that virginia means is gnats and humidity and the kk, then the alt reich wins.
I actually think it means cool sea breezes and vast bottomland and verdant off season green and the idea that...no matter the historical circumstances of our establishment, we can always strive to realize a better future.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Oh no, those things are SC.
Pretty sure the gnat is the state bird.
The KKK is the worst hidden secret in the state.
And there was never a breeze where we were...sea or otherwise.

Back in the bay I woke up in the middle of the night, and I saw two mosquitos in the corner. The one said..."should we do it now?" and the other said "nah, wait till the big ones get here".

On a Hatteras FB page recently, someone asked how to avoid the mosquitos. My suggestion would be to go there in the winter.

-and the best thing...is that the tuna don't know it's winter, cuz the water is still 80f. The wife and I didn't catch shi-ot off hatteras last year except slippery dicks on the beach. Our poor guy full on beached his 80foot boat on a sand flat looking for king macs. I couldn't keep my business together.... the cap calling The Wife a dick specialist. I was like..."yeah...you've met her too?"
Thankfully, we could buy mahi from other (luckier) vendors. It was a good grill. Speaking of.....I think it's time to look for rez ops again.... Stuck in the mountains too long.

Small price to pay. It's nice and fuckin' hot here and that's the way I like it.

I've visited Auckland and discovered my yoghurt has more culture.
Edit: reading back, it seems Brewer beat me to this comment.
He will be missed.

You do realize that the gnats and the kkk aren't in control of the thermostat....right? Get rid of both of those fucks and it'd still be hot. Cut to the chase asshole. Say something entirely embarrasssing for you and you alone....and lurk the fuck off for a few months.
