[texas1928]

Poll question: So what do you drink? Soda, pop, coke(no matter what it is)

[kick-ass-bob]

1. This could all be avoided if people would just call it what it is.

Is it Pepsi? RC? Coke? Call it Pepsi. RC. Coke.

Sheesh!


:popcorn:

[texas1928]

3. It is just Coke so there.

[jobycom]

5. Hey, we agree on this thread!

[kick-ass-bob]

9. How about what industry they are all in?

Industry: Beverages - Soft Drinks

Case closed, you freaks!


:bounce::bounce:

:popcorn:

[texas1928]

13. How bout this

we will start calling them carbonated beverages.

[kick-ass-bob]

15. too many syllables.

NEXT!

[texas1928]

16. Nothing satisfies you.

sheesh

[kick-ass-bob]

18. Hey - I suggested soft drinks, since that is their industry.

:shrug:

:D

Here, I'll get this turned into a nice flamewar - look down thread in a minute......

[texas1928]

19. OOOOO

My first locked thread.

[fishwax]

43. but how would you ask the question "what kind of ___ do you have?"

On edit: i saw you say soft drinks elsewhere ... that should have been a choice too :)

[LaraMN]

2. Pop.

preferably root beer.

[ghostsofgiants]

4. Soda, though I'll usually call the soda by its specific name.

[anarch]

6. seltzer

which I guess is a kind of soda :shrug:

[jobycom]

7. It creeps me out when people say "soda" or "pop." It's like

they ain't even real people. I think we just round up all them weirdos that say those words and put them in camps over in Cuba or Alaska or some island like that until they learn to think right!

[kick-ass-bob]

10. Industry: Beverages -

Soft Drinks


:D

The analysts always know.

[jobycom]

12. Damn liberal commies. Everything has to be soft and liquid, eh?

Why not call them hard bullets, instead? There's an American name!

[Kali]

39. hahahahaha

:rofl:













soda here 'cause when you're feeding teens you go with the cheap stuff....otherwise it's called iced tea

[underpants]

8. Coke spends $1 Billion on advertising every year, so does Pepsi

When I am ordering a "soft drink" I say "Coke" and the kid at the register sometimes says to me "Is Pepsi okay?" and I say "Yeah whatever"

[realisticphish]

11. Pop, of course

But I'll even tolerate soda.

Coke, however, is dumb. It's a company name. I don't call all cars "toyotas" or all computers "IBM's"

[texas1928]

14. No it is Coca Cola

that is the company.



:popcorn:

[tjwmason]

17. Don't drink any of them

But if you're looking for names, I would definitely use pop or just call it a soft-drink.

Coke is coke and means the brand-name cola produced by the Coca-Cola company.

Soda means soda water (sometimes called club soda).

[kick-ass-bob]

20. People who say Coke are hicks....

People who say 'Pop' sound like 5 year olds, and people who say 'Soda' are pretentious.



:popcorn: I think I need a big tub.

[texas1928]

22. So the pretentious ones are winning.

:P

[kick-ass-bob]

24. Of course. The liberal elite is all over this place.

:bounce:

[texas1928]

25. Snobs.

33. ROFL!

I was born and raised in NC, married a southern belle, eat biscuits and gravy, grits (with butter) and drink sweet tea!

[leftofthedial]

21. soda pop

[azmouse]

23. Water.

[RebelOne]

26. Same here.

If soda is capable of taking corrosion off your car battery, just imagine what it does to your stomach.

[azmouse]

29. My aunt used Coke to strip the wax from her kitchen floor.

Now that's nasty stuff!

[TheProphetess]

27. I grew up saying Pop but have learned to say Soda

It seems more inclusive. :shrug:

[CottonBear]

31. In the South, every soft drink can be referred to as a Coke or a cola

as in I'm gonna have an RC Cola and a Moopnpie for lunch. Those of us who are native Southerners never say pop or soda. The term soft drink is used.

[mzteris]

34. you mean co'cola,

doncha, hon?

[Oeditpus Rex]

36. Pronounced 'durp'

[Shine]

37. I'm not a soda drinker.

I do however drink wine.
;)

[yewberry]

38. It's tonic, you philistines!

Tonic=any carbonated beverage.

"Pop" is a verb and "soda" comes in a yellow "Arm & Hammer" box.

Geez, people.

40. This will end up in the Electoral College.

[texas1928]
