Still pop. But I don't judge others because they say soda.




...there are other reasons.

To me, Coke is a specific brand, not a catch-all term. It makes no sense to order a coke and expect something other than Coca-Cola. Maybe it's from growing up during the cola wars, or just from growing up in the city (Raleigh), but I say soda and soft drink with about the same frequency. I think "soft drink" needs its own category on this map.

apparently edgecomb county just prefers the term "drank"

12/22/2008 10:08:09 AM

It's a coke. As long as it is a cola, it is coke. Some people back home also use the term pepsi. But only gay asses call it soda or pop.

i use coke for coke, soda for anything else, but never pop.

*My parents are from north Jersey. Hence why I grew up saying soda. Though I do often use the generic "drink" even if carbonated beverages are the only options.

Amen.

We don't go around asking 'what's your motorola number?' when we mean 'what's your cell phone number?'.

florida proves once again that you gotta go north to go south

12/22/2008 11:25:39 AM

12/22/2008 2:25:34 PM

12/22/2008 2:27:10 PM

Its pop. If im in a restaurant I might ask 'what kind of soft drinks do you have' but wont say soda or coke (unless im ordering a coke).

Im from Cleveland btw

I do say Kleenex and Band-aid but I def don't call all pop...coke.

Don't forget saran wrap, velcro, white-out, and chapstick...

Also, there's frisbee, hacky-sack, hula-hoop, boogie-board, and rollerblades...

Retards call it pop and only idiots drink soda. Save yourself the colon cancer and drink water.

Hell, while we're at it...when I make burgers, I put them on the barbeque for a few minutes until pink in the middle. If I have guests over, then I am also "having a barbeque."

If I wanted to eat shredded pork, I would make "shredded pork," and use an actual barbeque sauce with it (unlike the inferior junk from either east or west NC that people seem to argue over...funny thing is, their argument is just as hilarious as it is totally irrelevant).

People who call soft drinks "pop" are the same fags who call a water fountain a "bubbler."

12/22/2008 9:21:24 PM

Who the fuck says bubbler?

12/22/2008 9:22:32 PM

A bubbler is a word for a weed smoking device, and a weed smoking device only.
