Atlanta, Georgia is a city known for its diversity – a place where all walks of life can co-inhabit. However, there are some things that all people from Atlanta just knows in their bones.
14. Everything is Coke
If you order a Sprite, it’s a coke. If you order Pepsi (but why would you do that?), it’s a coke.
13. Half An Inch of Snow Predicted For Next Week?
A state of emergency is declared, and every Walmart’s bread aisle looks like this:
12. If Someone Says They’re “From Atlanta”, They Probably Aren’t
As one of the three identifiable towns to people who haven’t been to Georgia, Atlanta is just code for ‘I don’t feel like giving you the exact directions and coordinates of my population 3,000 hometown that you definitely have not heard of’.
11. Yes, Traffic is That Bad
If Hell is real, it is just an eternal stretch of I-75 during rush hour, complete with heavy rain, a dash of sleet, and four lanes shut down – or as Atlanta residents like to call it, a typical Tuesday afternoon.
10. If The Road Exists In Atlanta, It’s Probably Called Peachtree
When it comes to directions, you have to be VERY specific. If you mix up Peachtree Street with Peachtree Street NE, there’s a possibility you might end up on the entirely wrong side of the city.
9. The Varsity and Zesto’s are the Most Delicious, Artery Clogging Thing To Ever Happen
Yes, I will have that third chili dog, thank you very much. #noragrets
8. If It’s Sunday, You Will Crave Chick fil A
It’s Atlanta’s most painful rule of thumb, especially when you don’t realize the date until you’ve reached the drive thru and have worked yourself up for one of those milkshakes. Life is hard.
