Don't you have to say what kind of "soda" or "pop" you want no matter where you are? I mean, if you want a mr pib how is telling the waitress you want a "soda" going to get it for you?
We call it pop here in Canada, but when ordering in a restaurant no one says "I'll have a pop"... the waitress would ask you "What kind?" every time (if you were dumb enough to do that)
