I've been in South Carolina since Saturday and the only places I've been to, besides the airport and my parents house, are:
The Coosaw Creek Crab Shack, where I had fried green tomatoes that were pretty good, but I never had a fried green tomato up until that point, so how the hell should I know? I also tried the Palmetto Brewing Company's Amber Ale which didn't suck either.
Target, where my mom and I bought a lot of crap, and every sales associate that I encountered asked me if I needed any help... If they only knew.
Dick's Sporting Goods, where I bought (no kidding) a Cocks hat. The big game against rival Clemson is this Saturday.
O'Charley's, where the appetizers are far better than the entrees, and the waitresses couldn't be nicer.
Food Lion, where I bought three packs of cigarettes and a six-pack of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. (My salvation.)
Summerville, what I've seen of it so far, reminds me of Milford or Stratford -- lots of pawn shops and strip malls, except there's a Waffle House on, seemingly, every corner.

if they only knew, indeed. You're beyond help of course. me, I help too much,or try anyway.
Be glad there's a Waffle House. When I moved out to Illinois, I realized they didn't know what a diner was! They didn't have breakfast served all day and they had NO CLUE what homefries were. The Waffle House was the closest thing to a diner I could find. So until you find a decent diner, be glad of Waffle House. Here in Rhode Island there's a donut shop on every corner! :)
My goodness... someone's a little overly-sensitive and quick with assumptions!
I wasn't knocking Waffle House, just merely pointing out their concentration in the region. Once upon a time, fair reader, I lived in Savannah, GA and devoured many a post-party meal in the wee hours at Waffle House.
As for the folks in Illinois not knowing what a 24-hr diner is, I've lived in Illinois too... and beg to differ.
