I think if there's any brand that people call a GPS system it would be a Garmin. I've heard people say "I'll just use my Garmin to figure out where such and such place is". I hate GPS Navigation systems anyway though because they make the world dumber. Why can't anyone read maps anymore? The only thing a GPS makes sense for is if you're looking for an exact address on a really long street, because who knows which part of the street the numbers start on unless you're familiar with the area.

Dude, you have become an old man. Do you look down on all the young whippersnappers in your neighborhood, too? Never use a calculator? You know those things make the world dumber!

Easier <> Dumber. IMO, dumb people are just dumb to begin with, it's not the GPS navigator making them dumb.

I'm not really saying it's the GPS making them dumb, it's more the fact that a lot of the people who I know who use a GPS have no clue where ANYTHING is. And they all seem to think that maps are so difficult to read.


And to stay on topic...SODA! Even though I've already stated that haha.

I used to call it pop up until about a year ago. Now I usually call it soda. But I still use the terms interchangably.

It's pop you backwards hippies.

"Soda" makes me think of the 1950's TV shows/commercials etc where all the hip young kids go down to the soda shop.

I've never called it soda in my life - and I've never heard anyone reference it (seriously) as "soda", or "soda-pop."

It's pop.
You can hop on it. You can drink it.
Case closed.

I guess whenever we hang out I'm usually drinking other stuff... but yeah I always refer to it as soda.

If you want to talk weird... ask for some "Za"
