Gas water sounds like something that would make you have to change your underwear.

I lol'd.

I call it Coke, not as a general term, but because Coca-Cola is all I drink. So when ordering food I always request Coke by name, that's basically the only time I ever refer to carbonated beverages. If I were to ever refer to tem in a general sense it would be using "soda".

Soda. But usually I just refer to whatever soda I want by name, thus staying away from the confusion.

beverage.

This thread comforts me. I never knew other people could be as condescending to those who call carbonated drinks "pop". I thought I was the lone *******. I don't know why it bugs me, but I just can't help but feel that those who use "pop" are quaint and goofy. Using "coke" is just plain dumb though.

That map is proving to be extremely accurate. I'm from Connecticut and have never heard anyone say anything but soda. I had no idea people used coke as a general term.

Yeah well we think you are dumb.

Could a moderator add a poll to have the following things:

> Soda
> Pop
> Soda Pop
> Coke/Cola
> Soft Drink
> Fizzy Drink
> Carbonated Drink
> Drink
> Gas Water (:laughing:)
> Other

You know everyone will just vote gas water, right? :p
