I've found DC to be the rudest bunch of people I've ever met. Everywhere I've gone in DC the people are just totally rude assholes. Everywhere I've been in the south has just been nice, polite, helpful people.
I found it to be exactly the opposite. Everyone in DC is doing interesting things. There is a lot of passion and hard work as well. They mostly shy away from direct politics in a town that is incredibly political by its very nature. I've been helped on the street more by average people than I ever was around Atlanta, New Orleans, or the spaces between.
I bet itβs boring
DC might be part of the South, depending on who you ask
