Thats pretty funny! At the same time...who the hell has this kind of time on their hands to try and make a map like this?!

fallenmuffin 08-19-2008 07:37 AM

I call it soda/coke. I've almost been in many fights over people calling it pop. I can't stand it.

pornguy 08-19-2008 07:38 AM

Was just talking with my wife about that not long ago.

IllTestYourGirls 08-19-2008 07:42 AM

"would you like your pop in a sack?" nearly died laughing the first time I heard that when I was in the south.

czarina 08-19-2008 07:45 AM

Miami girl here... I call it a soda in general, but when ordering of course, I specify: Diet Coke or a Coke

tranza 08-19-2008 07:45 AM

That map is awesome....hahaha

MetaMan 08-19-2008 07:46 AM

ok so why would "coke" be on there?

its pop or soda

we say pop

you dont want a 7up and say "i would like a 7up coke"

Brad Gosse 08-19-2008 07:48 AM

WOW someone actually did a survey on this and made a map LOL

I call it pop, have all my life.

theharvman 08-19-2008 07:49 AM

Just pop ;)

Odie 08-19-2008 07:51 AM

It's a "pop" cuz a "soda" is short for club soda..

I get some weird looks when I order a vodka soda cran in the US...lol

Dood 08-19-2008 08:02 AM

Isn't it strange the name of this survey calls them "Soft Drinks" but yet it's not listed.

MediaManiac 08-19-2008 08:03 AM

in wifi land we call it soda

Marcus Aurelius 08-19-2008 08:03 AM

RyanL 08-19-2008 08:04 AM

Thank god I am not alone. The number one issue I have with Michigan is the people sound like retarded hillbillies when they call it POP. WTF is POP? It is soda or pepsi or coke.

My fiance has learned to change what she calls it cause on our second date she called it pop and I almost left the date right there. I don't know why but its like nails on a chalk board.

TheDoc 08-19-2008 08:07 AM

I call it what it is, a Coke, a Pepsi, a Dr Pepper. I ask, do you have Pepsi or Coke products, and/or Dr. Pepper? If I gave it a name I would call it Soda Pop, Soda to me is for mixed drinks, and Pop is candy.

I grew in Texas, it says Coke is what we called it. But I don't ever remember asking for a Coke, and then being asked Coke, Pepsi, Dr Peper, ect. You would get a Coke if you asked for a Coke, simply because it's the largest drank soda pop in the area.

SarahLLO 08-19-2008 09:06 AM

Map seems pretty accurate. I grew up in California, so I call it "soda", but I live in Ohio now, and everyone else calls it "pop".

Odie 08-19-2008 10:03 AM

COKE AND PEPSI ARE BRANDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They also have numerous brands attached to them..I dont' understand why americans have such a difficult time with things like that..

like the dummy's that come up to Canada and ask for a "MOLSON"!!

IT"S a BRAND! Molson makes 20 different brands of beer..ugh!!

so if u ask for a coke..you get a coke..what happens when you ask for a sprite? do u have to say coke-sprite?? wtf?

Odie with that logic would you ask for a sprite pop? If you want a sprite ask for a Sprite. Along the same lines if you ask for a Molson you want a Molson not a Molson triple x or Molson ice.

Chris 08-19-2008 01:04 PM

soda ....... map is right to me

CDSmith 08-19-2008 01:07 PM

Pop.

But nobody says to a waitress "I'll have a pop", because then she'd look at you funny and ask "What kind?"

Instead we just order the kind we want. "I'll have a coke" means you want a coke specifically. We don't do the "what kind" rigamarole. Unless the customer asks "What kind of pop do you have?"


Pop is said mainly in reference to all soft drinks, like when in someone else's house and you ask "got any pop in the fridge?" or "Want me to pick up some pop at the store?" or "Hey, remember to buy pop for the brats, that'll shut them up for a while"

that kind of thing. :D

Fat Panda 08-19-2008 01:09 PM

CDSmith 08-19-2008 04:15 PM

All I know is if you come to Canada and ask for a coke no one is going to be asking you "what kind"... dude, yer gettin' a coke.

Soda I can understand, but referring to all pop as "coke"... not going to fly where I'm from, and I'm rather happy about that. :D

I've never once heard a single Canadian, Californian, Washingtoniter ask for a "Coke" and then say "Oh, a Ginger Ale" when asked what kind.

That's around the dumbest thing I have EVER heard. EVER.
