having lived in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Georgia, I can agree that "the south" IN GENERAL is fucking flyover as fuck.

However, Atlanta has one of the worlds largest and busiest airports. it hosted the summer olympics in '96 which is something that very few other cities in the us can claim. It is host to Georgia tech, which is a destination for many engineers interested in top 5 rated schools in the world for several academic pursuits, and the school can boast that it is a destination for students from hundreds of countries. It is the WORLD HEAD QUARTERS for coke, home depot, UPS, and delta, as well as 14 other fortune 500 companies - making it a destination for hundreds of thousands of employees of those companies. Bon apetit said the number one restaurant of the year this year was in ATL. Atlanta also has one of only 2 aquariums in the work with a tank large enough to hop whale sharks, can you say that whale sharks call your city a destination, or would whale sharks have to fly over your city? We invented chicken and waffles and east coast rap would be shit without ATL.

I live in ATL and call it home, which makes it a destination for me. Graduated from tech, wife and I make 120k a year a piece working for a couple of the fortune 500s. And housing prices here mean we could afford a 2000 sq ft house in the city, or a 6000 sq ft estate out in the burbs. Its a fucking fantastic place to live, work, and play and many trolls will call it flyover, but ATL is a fucking destination for many reasons.

The rest of the south is just red state retardation.
