Soda or Pop?

[FriskyTanuki]

Which do you say? I know some regions say pop and others say soda.

I say pop, and I'm from Canton, Ohio.

[zionoverfire]

How about Soda-pop? that's what I call it when I dont' just say Coke.

[Gman1717]

I say Coke for whatever it is, but I'm from the South.

[Trakan]

Soda

[gamefan1686]

we call everything here coke

[crazytalkx]

Soda

[FriskyTanuki]

If it's not soda or pop, put other.

[deathcabforcutie]

neither.. i prefer the word SURGE!! but anyways, in the south, everything is called Coke, even if its pepsi

[evilmojo12542]

just ask for a coke here

[Tromack]

we call everything here coke

That was something that always pissed me off about Texas.

[gameguy22006]

We call it pop here in Minnesota.

[davidmt]

Tonic

You mean you found Pepsi in the south, now that is a shock :shock:

I remember how hard it is to find Mountain Dew outside of a Grocery store.

[Moxio]

I call it either soda or coke. Pop and cola just sound strange.

[x0thedeadzone0x]

Always soda, and yes pop (esp soda-pop) sound strange to me as well. But honestly I don't need any other term really besides coke :twisted:

[johnnyoski]

I've always referred to it as Pop.

[6669]

Its soda here in Texas, but my b/f says its pop up north.

[Ikohn4ever]

i call it soda, but I am livin in pittsburgh right now and everyone calls it soda. Its really really annoyin

[Rig]

I say both, but most of the time I say pop.

[Grave_Addiction]

I say Coke for whatever it is, but I'm from the South.

Yes, it's called Coke. Doesn't matter what kind of Coke it is. It's a generalization, just like Q-tips and Kleenex.

[shoobywizard88]

Mainly call it pop. From Ohio to.

[vrs1650]

just coke.

[bignick]

soda, but everyone calls it pop out here.

[pimp_daddy_smurf]

i hate it when people call it pop. everyone in WI does it but me(well pretty much everybody)

[zewone]

Soda over here. I've never heard anyone say "pop" in all of California.

[bignick]

soda vs pop is the same as dub vs grinder vs hogie
it all depends on where you live.
The worst is the peopel in Ct that say idear instead of idea. They sound like fucking retards.

[x0thedeadzone0x]

The worst is the peopel in Ct that say idear instead of idea. They sound like shaq-fuing retards.

UGH, my CW teacher does that all the time. She also says share like "sheeer". It pisses me off so bad. -_-

[dcfox]

I say soda and I've never heard anyone native to northeast call it pop. Its like I've never heard anyone from boston call a frying pan a skillet. But one thing that I think is completely native to massachusetts is calling the water fountain the bubbler.

[Cracka]

I say Coke for whatever it is, but I'm from the South.



HAYELL YEEAAH!


i say Coke for everything too... i'm from Mississippi..

[RisingZan]

"dub" -that's a new one. :wink:

SOOOOOOOOOODAAAAAAAAA all the way.

[xxdeadp0olxx]

Soda, a lot of people in MA call it tonic as well. Like it was stated before I've never heard anyone up here say pop.

[demongorrian]

everyone around here in west michigan calls it pop. i've been calling it soda for the last year or so just to be different.

[neocisco]

I say Coke for whatever it is, but I'm from the South.

Yes, it's called Coke. Doesn't matter what kind of Coke it is. It's a generalization, just like Q-tips and Kleenex.

Bad example. Q-tips and Kleenex are essentially the same regardless of manufacturer. Carbonated beverages are very different depending on who makes it. BTW, I LOVE the bouncing fat kid. Everybody I show it to just cracks up.

My mom and grandmother say warsh instead of wash, I always make fun of them for that.

[judyjudyjudy]

Soda in CA and MA. When I was there, I noticed a lot of people in CO said "pop". (For the longest time, I thought it was just a quirky term my boss there used.) Didn't know about the southern Coke thing.

I find the Boston accent amusing. Buckle up when you're in your cah; it's the lawr.

[Mr. Anderson]

I want a literacola.

[Tricky]

I say coke.

[Pylis]

Soda, baby.

[blehman]

Pop here just north of Detroit. Only the old folks call it soda here.

I've heard John Kerry say idear too. There's no f'n 'R', but you know W gets lambasted for the whole nuclear vs 'nucular pronunciation'... But I digress, that is for another forum.

In Western NY it was pop, but since I moved to central NY everything has been soda. I've managed to get a few people around here to convert to saying pop. Check out the map at http://www.popvssoda.com/ for more of a breakdown.

[deathcabforcutie]

in the far north they also say "ern" instead of "iron" and a thing i find odd is a "creek" is called a "crick" in the north by extreme yanks, but it is also called a "crick" in the south by extreme red necks.. sorta odd...

My gramma does this too.

I say pop more often, and I'm about 15 minutes away from you. I like 'soda' much better though.

One is a shitty dialect, the other is ignorance. But as you said, that is for another place and another time.

[coolpapa]

everything is coke here

[1SwtDeception]

Pop! yeaps from Minnesota.. its like.. tennis shoes.. and sneakers too.. that northern dialect. I call kleenex, tissues.. O.o.. and I think it's MN has that thing with "hunt'n and fish'n" no -ING.. and also .. sentences ending with a preposition.. ah yea letting out some nice random stuff.

Normally I just call pop by whatever I'm drinking like Sprite, Dr. Pepper, etc.

[hiccupleftovers]

I say soda, but I have heard some people around here use pop but that is extremely rare. I actually just say coke for most drinks.

[sblymnlcrymnl]

I always specify the type ... coke, mt. dew, etc.

[kaji7p56]

Sodee Pop for me.

soda

[Vampire Hunter D]

Everyone here in Western Penn. calls it pop. But when i lived in NY everyone called it soda. But now that im living back here im back to calling it pop.

[Rei no Otaku]

Yup, we call it the bubbler too. New England woo!

Anyway, it's soda. I never even heard the term pop until I was watching some Canadian show a couple years ago.

[JebusMcLucifer]

Like the other Texans said, it's all called coke.

[The Shiznit]

call it soda here

[Snake2715]

pop...

I used to live in texas but pop it is here.

And as for the sodavspop link above there is some humor to be had by seraching 'other' and seeing peoples responses

[AlbinoNinja]

Soda, i dont think ive ever said pop

[trytej]

soda i guess.

[Zenithian Legend]

wow... pop is gettin smoked... oh well, I prefer to call it Horse Puckie

[mookiemeister]

I use soda more than pop. But I also use soft drink or coke.

[GreenMonkey]

http://www.popvssoda.com/

I call it pop but honestly I think soda is probably a better word.

P.S. Calling it coke is kinda dumb IMO. A COKE is a COKE, a PEPSI is not a COKE.


It's like saying:
Hey I wanna get a chevy. No wait, that's a Ford. I wanted a chevy, ya know, except Honda brand.

:-s fuck that

[doraemonkerpal]

i use soda or soft drink :lol:

Never seen that acronym before.

But the other was locked.

[minqqq]

it was pop until i went out to school in the east. now it's soda.

[MorbidAngel4Life]

Pop, damnit. Everyone around here says it.

[PR Mega X]

It's soda up here in Albany, NY.

[Maizrim]

Which do you say? I know some regions say pop and others say soda.

I say pop, and I'm from Canton, Ohio.

I'm originally from Mansfield, OH - so I still say "pop" myself.

I know I had a good laugh when those pop machines showed up in the Halo 2 maps - got to rub it in with my friends here in NC who say "drink" for just about everything but sweet tea.

[BIG5]

I grew up in Pennsylvania and call it soda, but now I live in Michigan and people call it pop.

[spoo]

I call it; pop, soda and soda-pop. Most of the time pop.

[jlarlee]

lol, right around the idaho area, there is just white. They only drink pickle juice around there! they dont know what the hell "pop"and "soda" is.

i was just about to make a poll on this because of the controversy in my "favorite Pop" thread on what to call this tasty carbonated drink.

[KrazyKefka]

Pop

[stocker08]

yes also pop around me! GO POP!

[cgpwns]

It depends. If I'm here in the south I call it soda. If I'm with my family in Wisconsin its called pop. I think its really funny how my grandparents up north are fascinated by grits!

[TJordan522]

Coke if I'm ordering a drink: "Could I have a Coke please?"
And soda if I'm using it in a sentence: "I'm gonna go get a soda-you want one?"
NEVER pop.

[Kaijufan]

Everyone calls it pop in Iowa.

[shortshire]

I vote that it's pop and there is nothing changing my mind with that. And I know this is the evergoing argument but i'm sticking with POP.

[My Name Is BoB]
