Coke, Pop, Soda, Soda-Pop, Other?

Now this may have already been posted a million times, but I'm new, so shoot me.

What do you call it?

Coke? Pop? Soda? Soda-Pop? Something else?

Coke. Or Co-Cola, depending on how long I've been around some of my relatives.

Coke... Or, I will also say Co-Cola (Pron. Co, as in co-worker, Cola) much like Bekibug does.

Coke is only for Coke, Pepsi, RC cola, Sprite, Sun Drop, etc. Dr. Pepper is Dr. Pepper.

It is called soda-calling it by any other name would be just wrong.

Like my location says, I'm either almost in Mississippi (home) or almost in Georgia (school), or travelling in between.

My roommate freshman year called it pop... it always grated my last nerve (then again, she was just obnoxious)

I'm sorry, when Coke is used for something not Coca-Cola or Diet Coca-Cola...that's just retarded.

It's soda.

Pepsi is Pepsi. Sprite is Sprite. Sierra Mist is Sierra Mist. They are not Coke.

That's just how it is.

I'm an Army brat, so I have lived all over, but I have lived in Indiana the longest, so far, before moving to Michigan. My family and I say "soda" while we live in an area where they call it "pop." It drives me a little crazy because people even refer to juice that is purchased in a bottle as "pop!"

It's all Coke. The longer I live in the non-South, the more convinced I will be that it's always been all Coke and always will be all Coke.

Amen! I love confusing people by asking for coke...in Dr. Pepper form.
