Wow, I don't even remember adding Coke in there =X. I guess it's unanimous!

I call it soda. But I have a friend who cheats and calls it Sodie Pop.
I go around calling it other. Thats what all the cool kids are doin'
Man i feel like having a can of other right now
I think some mod should stop being stupid and revert that obvious twink.
Coke coke and more coke. I drink it constantly at work 'cos it keeps me going and it's free. I'm a super laxed out person most of the time so I need lots of sugar/caffeine to keep me going.
Regardless of how much coke you drink, it is retarded to use "coke" as a generic term for carbonated beverages.
Example:
"What kind of soda would you like?"
"I'd like a Mountain Dew."
"What kind of coke would you like?"
"I'd like a Fanta."
If you can't see how using "coke" as a generic term for carbonated beverages is stupid, you need to get your brain checked.
I rather enjoy calling it tonic, but that shares a name much as Coke does, so it's not quite useful or logical to do so. Thus, I call it soda, as it ought to be called.
Coke or 7up only please.
Soda.
Fizzy drinks :/
Pepsi > Coke I just say soda. Unless I'm out of Pepsi.
I usually just say soda because its the quickest thing I can think of.
I say juice.

I use to say coke when I lived in texas but now up her in the WY I say pop.
I tire of repeating myself so I'll just say this every time this thread comes up. :Oo:
Since when did soda=coke???
Coke is Coke. Soda is american for anything fizzy. Pop is retard for alcohol (I think).
So I'd go with other. The drink is named by it's name, basically.
Coke is Coke, lemonade is lemonade, fanta is fanta, beer is beer, etcetera
SODA!
Anything fizzy is Pop. Coca Cola is Coke.
Pepsi isnt Coke, its Pepsi, or Pop.
Pop is Pennsylvanian talk! :)

"Coke" is a term for Southern backwoods hicks who do not understand that there are other types of sodas. But it's better than "pop."
Soda is the correct term.
Coke is my favorite carbonated beverage, but unless it is Coke I call it soda (or by it's given name. Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, etc).
How does that work? Soda is an abbreviation of soda pop. AS IS POP.Quote:

I call all of it pop ._.
I'm sorry if what I grow up speaking is too Mentally Handicapped for your tastes, Mirage, but it's just as valid a thing to say as anything else.
People define their language by speaking it, and it's pretty childish to call their dialect retarded.
Not dialect, choice of words :D. The thing is just that "coke" has a different commonly accepted meaning, that being a black drink from usually either Coca Cola or Pepsi :p
And you know I still heart you (I hope :o).

coke
because i like to say coke in a way that i say its better then pepsi.
Soda is anything that's carbonated.
"Pop" is a slang term that came into being because of the popping sound from opening the containers.
They're both shortened versions of the phrase "soda pop."
"Coke" is red-neck talk, unless you're actually talking about either Coca-Cola or cocaine.
I don't know about all of you guys, but I personally call it "other."
You wouldn't say I want some fanta coke would you? that just sounds stupid. I'd like some fanta soda is sooooo much better. I hate pop used like this ( i just think it sounds stupid imo) but I feel pop is better than calling it coke.
I wonder what member of the forums staff manipulated the polls this time? :rolleyes2
Generally I call it pop.
I say soda, or just call it by the brand's name.
and me....owait....Quote:

If you take out rubah cheating, it seems a good majority of EoFFers realize "soda" is the correct term. For once, EoFF isn't sucking. G'job.
I normally say the brand's name myself :thumb:
Ok so soda is normal in America, if I hear any brits say that I'll go to their houses and cut them.
does everyone even know the story behind why coke became the common term for it?
Anyways, most people say soda... canadians say pop...
THE JACKEL
I call it pop, because I am not an idiot.
the plague known as brand marketing at its finest. I mean, most everyone calls facial tissue Kleenex. Also , in the middle north here (of America) it is rather interchangeable, but most say pop. You can really use either or here.Quote:

Pop is midwestern US slang for carbonated drinks.Quote:
