How so, Kitsune?  The message is clearly directed at Keranu's message and it's just a joke (stolen from Andrew Dice Clay) about why not to use the word 'pop' in place of 'soda'.  If it's disrespectful simply because it's vulgar, then why no tears for 'ass' and 'hooker'?

I was about to drill you for not keeping it real.  In Nebraska it's pop dammit!

*edit*
By the way, happy BBD Turbo D!  Now you can piss your future away in public!   :clap:

In Texas, we just say "I'm going to get a Coke".


This usually never means Coke, it most likely means Dr. Pepper, as we are probably the world's largest consumer base for that drink.

Yeah I know, I was surprised that Necromancer, being a Nebraskan, said SODA! Out here near the Chicago area, especially the good old south subburbs 8) , we're all for pop.

I'll actually use 'pop' about 70% of the time and 'soda' only about 30% of the time (inconsistent - it's how I roll).

Wasn't Dr. Pepper first created in Waco?  I don't remember if that's were it was first mixed, but I do remember visiting the Dr. Pepper museum there about ten years ago.

Yeah, I mostly call it 'pop', but 'soda' doesn't immediately mark you as a ferner 'round these parts. ;)

Woot!

Turbo birthday hint: Drunken bomberman is a blast (or so I've heard)  :-"

I included that in my Senior will upon graduating from highschool in 95.

I like to get a drink of water from the "bubbla" when I'm thirsty.

I am a strong anti-soda user, that word is stupid. The closest I come is saying "sodapop", but that's kinda pushing it. Pop all the way man.

Pop vs Soda


I never have and never will refer to that beverage as 'soda'. [-(

It's soda where I come from. Of course, where I live, it's "refresco". Go figure. :D

Wait, what exactly is "pop"? I've almost never heard that word being used (on tv or otherwise). Is it just a different word for soda, or what? :P

Yes.

Anyone who refers to it as "soda" is clearly a numbskull.

Happy belated birthday, Turbo D.  I hope yours was better than mine. :wink:

By the way, I also use the term "pop" and only use "soda" as a prefix to "pop".  I never say soda by itself unless I mean club soda.

I should've figured this considering you're part of the Nerd HURD  :mrgreen: . That's jawesome though since I had no clue what Canadians called it!

Right on to everyone else who calls it pop!!!

EDIT: Wait, what exactly do you call it out there in Canada, Black_Tiger? Pop?

Holy crap, using "soda" vs. "pop" as a guide, only sophisticated heathens (such as myself) use the proper term: SODA.

SODA, you bastards. It's SODA.

Otherwise, it sounds like you're part of a Rice Krispies commercial:

"Oh snap! Let's smoke some crackle and drink some pop! Wooohoo!"

SODA, you bastards, it's goddam friggin' SODA.

Oh yeah... happy birthday :).

Screw you and your east/west side lingo! POP sounds way cooler and you know it! And technically, I don't think "soda" is necessarily the proper name since the real proper name would be "sodapop", so it doesn't really give a clear answer. Soda seems like it would make more sense, but it just sounds dull plus when you open up pop cans, it makes a POPping sound. Pop is clearly the correct word.
