East Cobb, what a joyous and interesting place to grow up. It is one of those places that if you were to describe it to an outsider, the only thing you could say is, "imagine complete suburbia and that, my friend, is East Cobb."
1. The day East Cobb got a Goodwill, angels sang from above.
2. You're still upset that Chuck E. Cheese is gone. RIP to our favorite mouse.
3. You watched The Avenue go from young kid stores to middle-aged women stores (no offense, moms of East Cobb). Still miss you too, Fuzziwig's and Johnny Rockets.
4. Reading the quote of the week on the sign outside Sherlock's is the highlight of your drive down the 120 loop.
5. Latricia will forever be the best waitress at Waffle House.

7. Ordering a beer at Sub Tap feels weird because you're pretty sure your still 12 and not actually over 21.
8. All East Cobb moms know everything about everyone. It is scary.
9. You know every waiter and waitress at Bagelicious, and it is harder to decide whose section to sit in than it is to order.

11. The fact that QT Corporate tore down the QT on Canton Road without asking, hurts more than they know.
12. Dollar sushi at Fuji Hana is the best and worst thing to happen to you.
13. Everyone has heard the rumor that Pope High School was built by a guy that also builds prisons.
14. No day was complete at Walton High School without Dr. Hand telling you that you had too much beauty showing, but also thanking you for coming to school today.

16. During your teenage angst period, you threatened to drive to Psycho Tattoo and get pierced or tatted up.
17. The cart escalators at Target make you feel fancy AF.
18. Everyone knows at least one person that has worked at Yogli Mogli or Brusters.
19. Anytime someone asks you where you're from and you reply with, "East Cobb" you get the same judging look followed by, "Oh, you're one of those East Cobb Snobs." YUP, I AM.
20. You couldn't imagine being raised in any other suburban bubble.
