If you ask for "tea" at a restaurant, what happens and where do you live?
In the South East, they bring you sweetened (usually far too sweetened for my tastes) iced tea. This is amazingly universal.
I live in NC and have been probing the border for years.
For "nicer" restaurants, the universal sweet tea boundary seems to be precisely at the NC/VA border.

They're in the US. NC is North Carolina and VA is Virginia.
Why the fuck is Virginia VA not VI? And why do Americans expect everyone to know these 2 letter codes for their states?
VI is the US Virgin Islands.
Haha, I have no idea why. As for Americans, I think because they make up a big chunk of Lemmy users, lots of them just assume everyonen else is from there as well.
