pop or soda

[Tom Earp]

POP!!!!!!! goes the weasle!!

Coke is trade name, cola is for other cocoa bean drinks, Pepsie, generic brands! It then becomes COLA!

Soda Water is what you mix with a drink for a toddy at days end! Most definitly needed then! Not 7-up or Sprite!

OKAY, what is Dr. Pecker (Pepper) or Mr. Pibb?

Grew up saying pop, but when I moved to Hawaii people didn't know what the heck I was talking about, so I switched to soda. Been saying it since, even at home.

I say soda, but when i order i ask for a coke.

[DeltAlum]

I can use either. It was pop when I was growing up, soda when I moved East (and in Milwaukee).

Seems like Soda is used more in Denver, but that's pretty unscientific of me.

Soda seems a better fit for me now.

This Southern "Coke" thing makes no sense at all. Coke is a specific brand.

Grew up calling it soda in Philadelphia. When I moved to Illinois, no one knew what I was talking about, so it became "soda pop."

TOm AND the Canadians here say Pop? Now I DEFINITLY will say Soda

Coke.

Always coke....unless you're asking for Dr. Pepper. Those are the only 2 acceptable choices.

God help me if i date a girl that says pop. I'm definately gonna have to work on that one with her

Then the person you order from asks what kind. For example when I go to Wendy's I say can I have a Coke and they say is Pepsi okay (I know that's stretching it) but in some places Coke is just like saying I want a soda. It's like the kleenex tissue thing.

Well, i don't drink sprite, root beer or (oh my god eww and disgusting big red).

but, if i did, i would ask for a sprite, A&W, or big red. Course if any of y'all ever hear me order a big red, smack me in the back of the head with a 2X4 because it's either an imposter Kitso, or i've been possessed by aliens bent on world domination.
