Do you realize how annoying it is to be generalized as a bunch of redneck idiots by someone named kitchenmotors?

Asking for:
pop gets me trying to hold back a laugh.
soda gets a weird look.
coke gets a coke.

That gets me everytime.
What do you want to drink?
"coke"
what kind?
"didn't I just say A FUCKING COKE?"
And didn't we just have this thread a few weeks ago?
Uhh, WTF? I live in Galveston County, TX and we just call them by their damn names, not Coke as the map implies. if not, "soft drink" is used for a generic term.
Waitress/person at counter: "What do you want to drink with that?"
Me: "Coke."
Waitress/person at counter: "OK, that'll be..."
NO CONFUSION THERE.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
I just call em fizzy lifting drinks.
I'm in Atlanta, and of course we call it coke here. It's where coke is from, they have a stranglehold on our conciousness or something. I just think it's sooo odd to hear people say it sounds right to call it pop. That sounds so goofy. So yeah, i think the south calls it coke cause it's stationed down here.

I live in the south and just call it by its specific name. I've NEVER heard anyone order a Coke and want a Dr. Pepper.

I don't even understand why you guys need to say the pop/soda bit first anyway? If you're bothered about using syllables, why don't you just say what you specifically want in the first place? That's gonna save whole sentences.

IT'S SODA DAMMIT!!! you damn non-new yorkers...... :lol
Yeah, Coca-Cola is very dominant in the south. I think Atlanta and Houston are the Main and Secondary HQ for Coca-Cola, and around here, "Coke" is often used to refer to sodas. As already stated by Olimario, there's different types of "coke". Orange. Grape. Dr. Pepper. Sprite. :lol
