Hint...

"pop" is gay, and there IS something wrong with that.

Pop is Pittsburgh, soda is definitely gay!

Pop and soda are both gay. Around here, we drink coke with a small "c". Want a coke? Sure, what do you have? I've got A&W Root Beer, 7UP, Pepsi and Coca-Cola. I'll have a 7UP please.

"Pop" is what Goober drank down at the fill'n station

Adults drink soda

 

[Nosmo King]

Soda is soda water. Mixed with blended scotch whisky.

Pop is liquid candy. Carbonated beverages for children.

Pop is also the preferred word in Pittsburghese.

I was raised in Seattle and back then we called it pop. Since then, I've lived in several places in the South and Northeast and now call it soda. However, my wife was raised in Colorado and so still calls it pop.

So have you ever been West of the Mississippi?

The best part is that right on the fucking labels of the drink containers, it says "Soda".

Just about on every damn one you'll find.

Just wait. There will be a freak posting 'tonic and a grinder' soon!

That kind of language has no place in an American lunch room!

Wherever I'm living, it's what the locals call it. Here, it's soda.

Pretty odd thing... I grew up on the Virginia/North Carolina border. We called a Pepsi, Coke, 7-Up, etc. a drink. Somebody would ask, "Would you like to have a cold drink?" If you answered "Yes" the next question would generally be, "What can I get you?" When I married my wife and moved up here to northwestern Illinois, they commonly refer to a Pepsi, Coke, 7-Up, etc. as a "Pop". Guess every region of the country has a different word for it. Like a paper bag you get a the store to put stuff in after you purchase it. I've heard it referred to as a "sack", a "bag", a "poke" and even a "tote". Guess it all depends on where you live like using "pop" or "soda".
