21 Things You Understand If You're From Georgia
Huffington Post

Each state has their own stereotypes and things that only those citizens would understand because that's what they grew up around. This is a list of things that only Georgians would understand.

You know you're from Georgia when ...

1. You need an IV of sweet Tea at all times.

2. There is no need to ask if you're going to the Friday night game because you are expected to be at every single one completely decked out.

3. You call Waffle House "Waho" and attend after every function no matter how late. Whether it's after Luke Bryan's farm tour or Prom night, you are always there.

4. You can wear shorts and tank tops on Christmas day — actually if you don't wear that then you'll probably have a heat stroke.

5. Spaghetti junction isn't a restaurant, but man do I wish it was sometimes.

6. You can say the entire Shane Co. radio commercial without stuttering and know all of their holiday specials.

7. You have to plan at least four hours in advance when going to Atlanta because Rush hour traffic doesn't ever actually end.

8. Camo is a year round fashion trend ... However, that needs to stop. Its making it very hard to find my friends.

9. It's not you guys, its y'all. Get it right.

10. You get lost for hours trying to find the right Peachtree Street.

11. You support the Braves and Falcons no matter how awful they are. However, you're upset about losing Turner Field.

12. You are looked down on if you drink Pepsi products ... I mean where do you think you are?


13. All the stores run out of bread and milk when there is even the slightest chance of snow.


14. Most peoples' trucks are higher than their level of education ... I do like those trucks though.

15. You think the national anthem ends with "Home of the Braves."

16. You wished to beat the buzzer on 95.5 the beat with Mami Chula.

17. Fried chicken is its own food group. So is Zax sauce.

18. You say you're from Atlanta, but really are just from some itty bitty small town.

19. Athens is the Downtown. And "Hotlanta" is something no one every says. Ever.

20. A naked dog ain't just an indecent puppy and 'What'll ya have!' is frequently yelled.

21. The big Q is the only way to cool off during the day ... except somehow the White Cherry is always broken.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
