And I don't use "agnostic". I am not a theist, therefore, I am an a-theist. If you say you don't know, you're an atheist.

I think you can be both an agnostic and an atheist, but the key difference to me is that one term is about knowledge (agnostic) and the other belief (atheist). An agnostic says, "I don't have the knowledge/evident of a god" while an atheist says, "there are no gods that I believe in." Agnostics theoretically are open to knowledge of a god if it could be provided. Atheists say that there are no gods I believe in despite what others may say they believe. Much the same in many ways, but starting from a different point.
