- you use sir or ma'am if there is a remote possibility that the person you're talking to is at least 30 minutes older than you
- you can properly pronounce Chickamauga, DeKalb, Dahlonega, Smyrna, Buena Vista (not like the one in CA or Fla), Valdosta, Okefenokee, and La Fayette.
P.S.. Atlanta = ADD-LANNA not AT-LANT-A
- you know that the true value of a parking space is not determined by the distance to the door, but by the availability of shade
- you measure distance in minutes (such as, I live 5 minutes from my office)

- you've shopped at lenox and phipps
- you can say PONCE DE LEON AVENUE correctly - PONCE DAY LEEEE-ON

-You still call hi fi buys amp. "Lakewood"
- you still call the airport hartsfield.. and got mad when they added the "Jackson"
- not flying delta is a sin

- you wonder why all the tourists/ visitors always try to pronounce Ponce de Leon with an accent
- you can definately tell when someone is not from here because of the way they drive
- you can get anywhere by using the big chicken
- when you drive 45 min out of your way to avoid rush hour
- you know that the peachtree street, peachtree road, peachtree industrial, and 141 are all the same road but eventually they split and 141 becomes peachtree parkway
- you see a drug transaction right outside of turner field
- you've seen the fireworks and the tree lightings at Lennox
