It's not just a GC thing.

You missed the point of my 2+ year old post. Read
this thread and you'll see the birth of the term "Macon Magnolia" in 2003 here on GC (post 23). For many years, it was pretty much only a GC thing. My post was prompted by my first time seeing it used outside GC, and you'll notice I said I googled it then and found other references to it. The whole point of my post was to wonder whether that was just some random GCer(s) sticking it in places like Wikipedia or whether the term was really gaining traction outside GC.
