In and Out Arrival is fake. Good. We don't need another overrated regional burger chain. Whattaburger is mid enough. Every time my bytch drags me to In-n-Out when I'm the west coast I want to bludgeon her. I could be eating Mom and Pop Thai food.

So I just bought a house on the south side in Fairburn after living in an apartment in Sandy Springs for the last 7 years.

I’m pretty close to Old National. My question may sound blasphemous but I’m genuinely curious, but what’s so special about Old National compared to other main streets in metro atl? I’ve heard about this street all my life in music and what not but it’s hard to tell the history of it and it’s importance just by driving down it.

I didn’t notice anything too crazy. I lived off Old Nat and Godby Rd and I would hit up Backstage and the Chinese wing spot at like 2 in the morning. Other than some junkies outside a gas station in the interaction I didn’t mind.

It’s not even bad. I remember a spot called MadHouse and a Walmart by World Changers Church

South Fulton was never all black and Cascade is the border between Atlanta and South Fulton so...

The closer you get to Cobb or Coweta, the whiter it gets. There no black epicenter in Coweta, pockets of black all over Newnan and the County. My father's family been living by the Country Club since the 70s

You wouldn't understand unless you grew up in that area.

1.It's a long main road that connects many parts of the southside together
2. The discount mall
3. The establishments still have that old Atlanta feel to it and hasn't been over ran by grass walls
