Oh, that map that was posted is kinda inaccurate. Around the Northeast I always hear people call it tonic.
I agree with him though, we are a third party faction that hasn't been represented in the poll. :mad2:Quote:

I call it pop. I wonder what the history behind this is. I like how blue is winning on the map. I can accept soda. I can accept soft drink. Calling them cokes drives me nuts though
I don't really know America too well, but isn't the greatest part of the population on the coasts where the map appears to be yellow?Quote:

I wouldn't be surprised if I am completely wrong though :D
No actually you're right, the middle of America has much less people than on the coasts. Though the yellow part in the Northeast is wrong because I've lived there and almost nobody there calls it soda, they call it tonic which isn't even an option ITT or on the map.
White Babylon is always lying about something.
Soda. Going to college in Missouri and being friends with people mainly from the Northern MidWest this topic comes up a lot.
Needless to say they are wrong and I am right.
EDIT: And my vote made the standing 26/52 for Soda, so I am pleased.
The blue is not really "winning" on the map. The most populated areas in the US call it soda, so population wise soda is ahead. California and the eastern 2/3 New York that is yellow by themselves probably make up at least 1/4 of the US population.
Also, 27/53. Soda has a majority now and has proven its supremacy.
2/3 or gtfo
I dunno if a population ruling is what you're looking for either. Considering how many people are in the country and then considering how many of them don't use their brains on a daily basis. I'm not sure I want to be slumped into a population majority. I'll stick with being the sub group of smart people. If I ever learn that Einstein or Hawking called it soda or tonic or soft drink (God I hope not coke) then I may shed my heathen ways
Well I use to call them carbonated beverages but everyone kept looking at me funny.Quote:

I wonder what it would be like to hear someone call it a "Fountain Drink" in a real life setting.
28/54 now, inching higher. You "pop" sayers should just accept your demise now.
It's soda ya goddamn hicks.
