What are some things, whether it's rappers, slang, styles of dress, dances, clubs, etc. that only people in your hometown or state know about? For example, if somebody from a different region was like "oh so you from _____ so I know you like to...." you'd prolly get excited and respond like "daaamn what you know about that!!!"
