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).

armpit of the south 

Columbia, South Carolina. A city that is below sea level that traps heat and stays in the 100s but is not close to water. There is also little intelligence and all trees in the hell hole were cut down and turned to pavement. The city is full of ghetto and trailer parks, most graduates of the lowly Univ of South Carolina that produces educations less than academic standards of most developed nations.
Is there anyway to get between the great towns of Greenville and Charleston with out having to drive through the armpit of the south?

The best thing that happened to the armpit of the south is when General Sherman burnt it to the ground.

church hurt 

church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.

Huge. Surpassing normal expectations.
I was fishing with a Spinner Bait and a HONKIN pike came after it and hit it . Felt like a lawnmower running over a brick.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
