Alright, everybody calls it something. Soda, pop, coke, carbonated beverages. People in the South call it "coke" (or most of it, not all would qualify), people in the North and West call it "pop" and "soda"...I don't know what people in other countries call it. So what about you?
What if you call it more then one of those things, and by equal amounts?
No, it depends option? I alternate inbetween the various terms from time to time. Right now I'm in a just soda phase right now so I think I'll go with that.
In Europe they say cola.
I say soda-pop.
Exit Marick, drinking a soda pop.
Soda.
Ke le.
It's soda damnit! NOT pop! Some people... :mad:
Honestly? Fizzy drinks or soft drinks. BUT I selected Coke just for fun...coz I do say Coke, y'know. [img]http://home.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/heart.gif[/img] I like 'em.
Like Resha, I say soft drink or fizzy drink. Or just drink.
It depends what it is, but I usually call the drink by its proper name. For example, if I'm going to retrieve a Coke from the fridge, I'll say something along the lines of "I'm going to get a Coke". If I intend to fetch a can of Dandelion and Burdock from the fridge, I'll say "I'm going to get a can of Dandelion and Burdock", and so on and so forth.
What's Dandelion and Burdock? Well, that's something for another thread. ;)
I call it juice I think :confused: Or I just call it by its name.
However, I used to have a friend who called it "popping juice" that used to have me in stitches!
I call it pop, as does everyone I know.
I call it by whatever the name of the product is.
"Can I have some PEPSI?"
"I want some 7UP"
Yeah, you get the picture.
Coke or pop...
With much Metta,

I say:
'I'm gonna get a can of Coke' even if I get something completely different... Probably becasue I was gonna get Coke, but decided to get something else.
And that Dandelion and Burdock... I think I had that once, when I was at the Pantomime. Didn't like it. I think it is made of Dandelion and Burdock :eek: (You never would have guessed, huh?). :D :D
I eschew the controversial "soda" and "pop" monikers and instead just call it "caffeine". Who needs the bubbly water and caramel, I say. I don't refer to orange juice as "pasteurized orange concentrate", I don't refer to fruit snacks as "hyrdolized corn syrup", so I'm not about to go around calling caffeine "soda".
Not surprisingly, non-caffeinated soda/pop (including the clear, lemon-lime varieties) are designated as "non-caffeine".
I just call it a soft drink or if it's Cola I call it coke

I call it pop.
Why are we still talking about pop vs. soda. The real issue here is how gay dave van dommelen. From what I hear he is really gay.
Same here.Quote:

It depends. Sometimes I call it pop and sometimes I call it soda. But never soda-pop! :mad2: Or I just call it by the product name. It varies from time to time.
I just say drink
Us brits dont call things soda or pop
Sometimes soda, other times by it's actual name. Depends.
:D
Soda. And only soda. Anything else is evil.
I call most of it "Coke", and get made fun of for it.
"Hey, you want a coke?"
"Sure, I'll take one."
"Alright, we got Mountain Dew, root beer, or some diet stuff."
"You moron."
Whereas Coca-Cola, by brand name, is referred to as "coke-cola".
And there are things that don't qualify as "cokes", as a matter of fact. Slice, Fanta, Shasta, Miranda, Crush, and other fruit-flavored sodas should not be considered "coke", but rather, "soda", because that's what they are. It still isn't technically wrong to refer to one as a "coke", but it's not the preferred label.
It would technically be correct to refer to everything as "soda", but definitely not "pop".
What? No they dont :confused:Quote:

There's only one word for it and that's: SODA
:mad2:
I just call it a 'drink'.
"Hey I'm just going to get a drink."
"Aight cool, man."
If asked what drink it is, It's none of your business.
I most often call it "soda pop."
soda... I hate calling it pop, lol, or I call it by it's name, yeah, I think I do that the most.
Coke. Always coke.
Yes.Quote:

In general, i call it soda, but i say coke when talking about coca cola or pepsi (original flavors) or any other generic brand resembling these.
