Soda or Pop???

[KillerGremlin]

I live in the weird yellow part of Illinois that refers to it as "Soda." I also prefer soda.

Ah, a band-aid is a 'pleister' I guess.

I always figured it would be called a plaster.
-No idea where asparin comes from. And no, never heard of tylenol or acetaminophen. I do know ibuprofen, but never use it.
-Klitteband is named after the plant 'klit':

Notice the hooks at the ends.
-Yes, ijs means ice. Basically pronounced in the same way too.
-Yeah I guess we call this kind of foil plastic foil. But never Saran wrap.

-I like the word 'blinds'. "Shut the blinds!" sounds so much cooler than "shut the luxaflex!"
-Maggi is ok I guess. I rarely use it, it's always soy sauce for me.

Ah, a friend told me some good ones. We have absolutely no decent word for 7UP! Same with Jeep.
Bacardi introduced the Breezer. We don't have another word for fruity, sugary drinks with alcohol.

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"
