Soda Vs. Pop - The eternal battle

[_blank_]

When referring to surgary carbonated beverages, would you typically call such drinks "Soda," or would you say "Pop?"

Or, are you one of the special animals that just says "Bubbly" or "Coke" or 'BIG, BLACK DICK?"

Prepare to lose some friends.

 

[Rand /pol/]

Yes.

 

[Tootsie Bear]

I've always people who use "pop" would be elderly. That or it's used as a joke in a movie/show. Everyone I know said soda.

 

[Chichan]

I use both interchangeably.

Here's a map of who says soda vs pop (thx for your dox btw)
Here's a far more detailed interesting map for autists like me, that unfortunately doesn't have soda v pop but does make up for it with a lot of other distinctions

[PL 001]

I say soda. It really does seem to be older people (at least in my area) who call it 'pop'

 

[MasterDisaster]

I say both because I don't care.

 

[Unog]

*Clack* *Clack Clack* *Clack*

 

[Sprig of Parsley]

Depends on who I'm talking to.

You watch your fucking mouth! Don't say that about my aunt!

 

[Richardo Retardo]

I say Soda but I know a lot of people who just call all sodas "coke" too. I never liked when people do that.

 

[Begemot]

Um. Soft drink. Like every other Antipodean.

In Boston, it is a tonic, as in "I'll have an orange tonic"

Also in Boston, at least traditionally, if you order a milkshake, it will contain no ice cream. If you want ice cream in it, you need to order a frappe.

This has probably changed a lot in recent decades with more mobile populations. But it was firmly entrenched at least until the end of the 20th century.

I am not Bostonian, so I say soda, like normal people do. But there are Bostonians a stone's throw away from me right now.

Well, why aren't you throwing stones at them?

 

[sasazuka]

I'm a "soft drink" person but I definitely prefer "soda" to "pop".

 

[beautiful person]

Growing up, the locals in my area always called it "pop," but since my family are a bunch of filthy transplants, I picked up on their "soda" speaking lingo.

 

[Exigent Circumcisions]

I say sodie pop.

Also, this thread is a faggot.

 

[Creep3r]

*clip clap clap clup* (I bang rocks together to communicate.)

*clap clap* (Soda pop.)

 

[User names must be unique]

I name it, "a vile abomination unto the lord".

Such a liquor that roils as if boiling whilst cool as winter winds reeks of foul sorcery, I damn it and the foul alchemists whom concocted it.

 

[EH 110]

Soda is the correct word.
