Poll: Do you call it Soda, Pop or something else?

[Cerzelo]

Being from London, I use the brand name for all drinks, but if talking about all these types of drinks collectively (coke, fanta and the likes) I say soft drinks.

 

[wizzerd229]

You need another option, coke, mostly a south eastern US thing

 

[Slaanax]

Pop here in Western Pa.

 

[Estocavio]

I call it by ITS NAME. If its Mountain Dew, I call it Mountain Dew. If its Coca Cola, i call it Cola.

 

[Frankfurter4444]

Here in the South, we call it "Coke."

Obviously if we want to specify, we call the carbonated beverage by its particular name. But if I'm going to get a drink and I want to see what anyone else wants, I say "I'm going to get a Coke, you want anything?" And then I'll return with a Sprite, Mountain Dew, etc.

 

[TheWwwizard]

Soda... but normally I call it by the brand.

 

[Hashime]

it is pop, I do not know anyone who calls it something else.

 

[The_Echo]

I call them by their specific name.

I've been in restuarants were I literally had to go through a list for any one to know what I was talking about. For example, I once tried ordering Pepsi, Coke, Sprite, Mt Dew, Cola, Pop, Soda, Can, and finally, exsaperated, asked for an RC and was thusly served.

So I call it what the locals call it. . . until they make fun of me for being a yankee. Then I call the fucker a pop and they will deal with it.

Off topic:

RC Cola is the best fizzy concoction I have ever tasted. You should try it some time.

 

[Zhukov]

Round these parts it's known as "soft drink".

 

[blankedboy]

coke.

I just say the brand. If I'm making a generalisation, then 'soft drink', but I barely ever say that.

 

[Julianking93]

Pepsi.

 

[crimsonshrouds]

I Live in ky where i hear either one or both

 

[-Samurai-]

I call it pop. I don't like how soda sounds.

 

[infohippie]

"Soda" and "pop" both sound retarded. I call it soft drink, or just "a drink." Or a descriptive name (Coke, lemonade, etc)

 

[Dimensional Vortex]

We call it soft drink over here, or just he brand of soft drink it is.

 

[Denizen]

Unless I'm differentiating between any other soft drinks, i casually refer to it(being any general soft drink) as (or a) coke.

 

[TilMorrow]

Fizzy!!!
