And thusly our Union remains divided. This is a comment on social perceptions, not a mandate. Let’s not throw insults.

Really? cause I moved here from Tampa, Fl. and have found people ( for the most part) to be way friendier and kinder than the sun-cooked brain dead, alcohol fueled idiots of Flordia.

I love Charlotte, the wonderful and the warts.

Here are some other memorable insults:

“The only franchise Charlotte will get is one with golden arches.”

~A Phoenix sportswriter during the 1988 NBA expansion.

“They’re in Charlotte? Oh, you mean they’re ALMOST in North Carolina.”

~former Gov. Jim Hunt, upon hearing a friend was traveling to North Carolina and had crossed the state line into NC.

If you’re going to blame Charlotte for having unattractive women, being “dead behind the eyes” and “clueless” then how about we look at the influx of outsiders. Let’s address the fact that Charlotte’s population has grown tremendously since 2000. We grew 64% from 2000-2010 (Business Journal) vs 14% for the nation. Where do you think all of those people came from and what kinds of regional attitudes they brought with them?

People hate us more than Hitler City, North Carolina before they changed their name to Charlotte.
