15 Foolproof Ways To Make Someone From South Carolina Cringe
South Carolina is loved and adored by pretty much everyone lucky enough to live here. And it’s safe to say there are some surefire ways to turn the head of just about any South Carolinian, but it takes a lot to get under our skin. However, there are some foolproof ways to do it. Take a look below.

Go ahead, ask for a pop if you want. We probably already knew you were from up North anyway.

Or worse: ask us to spend the night! Don't get us wrong, Myrtle Beach, and think for a second that we don't love you. It's your crowds we prefer to avoid.

It's just simply not true. Hands down, the most gorgeous sunrises happen right here in the Palmetto State.

Uuugh. Not again. There's nothing more annoying than being stuck in rush hour traffic.

Any construction merge is a cringe-worthy mood killer.

We really don't care to know how you did it up North - as if that's the correct and only way to go about things. Bless your heart.

We make friends for life here in the Palmetto State. If you want to target one of us with silly rhetoric then you're making fun of everyone.

Fair and square. Enough said.

Ordering unsweetened tea in South Carolina is nearly unheard of. Most folks just learn to drink something else rather than subject themselves to hardcore stares of those sitting nearby.
How many of these hit the nail on the head for you? What other things make you cringe?
