I've live in the states for 8 years and there's one thing I still don't understand.
"Un"sweet tea.
For those outside of the US, here, there's sweet iced Tea and "unsweet" iced tea. Sweet iced tea doesn't sound abnormal. You just add sugar to iced tea!
However, can you actually "un-sweet" iced tea? Isn't tea not sweet to begin with? Why is the original being called the "de-unoriginal"?
Is this another of those southern things that I am not supposed to understand?
