Soda or Pop?

[98cwitr]

This is unacceptable! That's like people calling every tissue a Kleenex.

I do that too!

Neither...down south everything is Coke!

We have to remember that in those early days literal cocaine was in the drink. That's why it was called Coke.

I'm okay with that history.

Pop. If you say soda, you're possessed by demons. But no pressure.

I just call it by its brand name depending on what I am talking about (ie. Cola, Sprite, Root Beer)

 

[jimmyjimmy]

I call it gin and tonic.

But some of us want to go 'first class' (make mine distilled water please).

Grew up calling it pop. Then I was mercilessly mocked by friends as a young adult, and so now it's soda.

Peer pressure is no joke.

Coke

Pop or Coke works nicely. But I always say pop, though. I do, however, order Cherry, Vanilla, or Blueberry (if they ever invent it) Coke whenever I can or if I could with respect to the flavour of 'Blueberry'. (Y)

Is staut another spelling of stout? I looked it up online and it looks like a rock band...?

In my opinion, stouts are the only beer with drinking

Try a strong ale, I highly recommend it! My favourite two beers of all time are "Irish Death" Strong Ale and "Mad Elf" by Troeg's. The best they are! I do love a good stout or porter!

And if you keep drinking Water, you'll eventually get there, as well. (Hint: We all shall! )

Drinking water instead of a cola makes you go to heaven better? Or did you mean that in a different way?

I meant without the obesity, tooth decay, and diabetes on the way.

I'm not sure choosing to drink cola means those things will occur
Likewise, not drinking cola could sill mean a person could have obesity, tooth decay, and diabetes.

I take it you drink a lot of soft drinks.
