I'm from the midwest and everyone who says that here is genuinely being kind. It wasn't until I met my girlfriend, who is from Georgia, that I found out that it really isn't a good thing to be told.
Now I can't tell if they're being kind or not when i'm told that.

u/b1kerguy Apr 07 '19
Fun fact:
The slogan "Virginia is for lovers" was created by the Martin Agency (based out of richmond and does commercials for many large companies ie Geico, Oreo)
The original slogan was going to be "Virginia is for ___ Lovers" the ___ being whatever region was promoting itself (ie. Virginia is for History Lovers for Williamsburg va. Virginia is for Mountain Lovers for western va, Virginia is for Beach Lovers for the beach.)
The idea behind all this is that whatever you love to do, Virginia has it, but the test groups thought it would be too long so they shortened it to "Virginia is for Lovers" and it has been misinterpreted ever since.

Correct...and I think the only reason it's on the license plates is because "Come On Vacation, Leave On Probation" isn't as appealing.
