Soda, pop or Coke - what do you call it?

[crp]

Sweeeet!

I'm from Chicago ILL and everyone there calls it pop, but I have moved 300 miles south to Benton Ill and everyone here look at me as if I were retarded when I say pop. Sometimes it takes people a while to even register what I'm saying.LOL They're like "WHAT!"

Also up north the tea was always unsweet, and you hardly ever see sweet, but down here everythung is sugar laiden.LOL

I call it Soda or when asking someone if they want some then I call it Soft Drink... but mostly by its name.

When it comes to mixed drinks mostly by name or by class..ex: Highball

I grew up in Oklahoma and I have always called it Pop! Pop is what it will always be. Soda reminds me of a Soda 'Pop' fountain.

Tea...don't really matter whether sweet or unsweet as I rarely touch the stuff myself.

Liquor or adult beverages...don't really touch those either anymore.

My pop of choice until my mid twenties was Pepsi (will NOT drink a coke for anything), now mostly Dr. Pepper, but on occasion will drink a Code Red (Mt. Dew).

Water of choice is Aquafina with a packet of Crystal Light fruit punch.

Plain water....nah, not really interested as it just doesn't have any flavor.

Good lord what a waste of scotch! Hopefully you only mix it with dewars or something like that.


Never ruin the Glenfiddich that way, it should only be mixed with company.

Both me and my dad can't stand to drink city water here because we've lived out here and had our own water for so long. Our water comes right from the ground with the only filtration before the tap being a little bit of gravel and sitting in a couple settling tanks. If I'm planning on doing an all day shoot at a rodeo or something here I'll bring my own water from home so I don't have to drink the city water (and the city water is good by all standards, its just been filtered and removed all the taste).

Plus, the city water source is WAY too far from the septic leach field.

All soft drinks are Coke. You have to specify what kind of Coke you want (Just a Coke, Dr. Pepper, Sprite, etc . . ).
