armpit of the South

regional expression for South Carolina, reference to the perception among other 'southern states' that South Carolina is prone to embarrassment. Fittingly, though somewhat unrelated to the definition, armpits and South Carolina share the traits of being humid and containing a vital artery of the overall entity (in this analogy, the South).

I was raised in the armpit of the South, South Carolina
