Yeah, try that next time you're in a place like Leland, Mississippi. ;-)

Ziggy Stardust Wrote:What about soda-pop? Growing up in North Dakota it was always pop. Moved to Ohio, and it was still pop. Can't believe you jerks call pop coke. That's like calling every tissue a kleenex, or them ear cleaner things (oh man do I love them ) q-tips. Grow up.

Kind of like how all PDAs are Palms and how all MP3 players are Ipods?

Coke..it's freaking Coke.

I can't get over how ANNOYING northern accents are when they say "pop" or "sooooaaaadaaahhh". Ewwwwww

so wait, if you want a sprite, you'd ask for coke?

Patron: give me a coke
waitress: what flavor?
patron: sprite

:wtf:

patron: give me a coke
waitress: what flavor
patron: coke

:wtf:

patron: give me a coke
waitress: coming right up.

patron: give me a sprite
waitress: coming right up

patron: give me a pop
waitress: coming right up (punches patron)
patron: ouch

No..I'd ask for a sprite. A sprite is a type of "coke".

well, i'm confused. can someone break this down for me. i'm lost. this is what i think: coke= coca cola, soda can be anything from coke to mellow yellow to sprite. pop is nothing. what do the southerners think coke is?

I do ask for what I want when it comes to "Soda Pop Colas". Being a Diet Coke fan, damn that stuff's like crack to me, it isn't confusing.

HOWEVER, a q-tip is a q-tip. Kleenex has become a generic term as well.

Tell me sumpin, those wrenches that are adjustable, do you guys call them "Crescent Wrenches"? Because Crescent is just one brand as well.

Actually I call it an adjustable wrench. :withstupid:

wtf is a crescent wrench?
