Right on the nose Take a Stand; you're pretty insightful. I was pretty pissed off. I AM a VA Tech fan though- that was my addition
And thanks for saying I might not be a total tool!
I still think TheMeeper is a prick

Uh, I think I meant who would get the wagon trails. Or horse paths. Or boats? They had boats right?

So, I'm at the Kiss concert at Nissan Pav in line at the Men's Room this good ol' boy in line exclaims "I been drinkin for 3 days, whaddya think o that? I said "I think you'll have a nasty hangover". He asks me "So are you a rebel or what?
I was stumped, I honestly did not know the answer so I say "Well, I guess I'm a rebel against some things" So he says "Awe you ain't no rebel go back to New Jersey, Yankee". I'm like "Damn dude I'm from Alexandria".

IMO, Northern Virginia is the South, but its really the furthest north you can go and still be in Dixie. North of Loudoun County and its pretty much yankee territory. Baltimore is in no way Southern.
Washington, D.C. was actually pretty Southern 40 or 50 years ago. But now its more Northeastern.
Northern Virginia is very transient like Hampton Roads,so even though it was historically and culturally Southern , its really feels like anywhere USA. And most of the old plantations in Fairfax were torn down to build developments and Starbucks Coffeeshops.

The funny thing, of course, is that North Carolina itself receives loads of Northern transplants every day. I wonder how long it'll be before we start hearing comments like, "I'm not a Southerner; I'm from Charlotte." Fifteen years? Ten?

Hell yes. This is for the people who are originally from here and don’t pretend to be rednecks, or aren’t stupid enough to confuse the south with the ‘deep south’.
No, we’re not Alabama or Mississippi, but Southern nonetheless. Try going up to Mew England and you’ll see the difference.
