Method of Madness:
I don't know, I was in Virginia a month or so ago and it didn't seem that different. To be fair I was only in towns right outside of DC (Alexandria/Arlington) and a college town (Charlottesville), but still.
Zebediah:
Yes, it can be quite jarring. A year ago I moved from North Carolina to Massachusetts. Accents aside, the culture is rather different here.
Incidentally, the Mason-Dixon line (historically the border between Pennsylvania and Maryland) no longer makes a good border between North and South. It's moved southwards to the Rappahannock river in Virginia. Anything north of that is no longer Virginia, but "Northern Virginia" - or as a former boss called it, "Occupied Virginia". You cannot get decent sweet tea north of the Rappahannock, and forget about biscuits.
Warning - while you were typing a new reply has been posted. But upon review, there is no need to edit your post. Carry on.

--- Quote from: Loki on 31 May 2013, 08:43 ---There was a fictional proverb in a book I once read. The proverb said that you can go around the world once without ever noticing how the cultures are changing.
I suppose it's similar to the "water never boils while you look at it" sentiment.

I've heard more than one US person report feeling like they had been been through a discontinuous change when they drove across the Mason-Dixon line.

Look at her face in the last two frames. She does not look as if she is enjoying this.

Right, cause we can infer the emotions of a character with two frames accurately.

When we're talking about two very informative frames, drawn to clearly convey emotion?
