"OTer's, It's Time To Vote!"

Here's the Rules:
1. Type your vote in the subject line
For example, if you wanted to vote for "Milkshakes" you'd write "Milkshakes" in the Subject line. Easy, huh?
Anyone who does not comply to Rule 1 will be whacked by Coco.
Whacks not refundable, nor returnable
2. Sig pics allowed!
Sig pics are just that cool.
3. Threadjack as much as possible
Curves on women is good, on OT threads, they're even better.
So, here's the question...
Do you call carbonated beverages "Soda", "Pop", "Soda Pop" or some other name?
See this link for more information:

EDITED to note that I put the apostrophy in the wrong place... mock me, Coco!

1. No whacks for me, I followed da rules. Although Milkshakes might just win the IC and ruin this pick for me.
2. I finally got a Christmas sig. At least I did this before finishing decorating my house. That's worth something, I guess.
3. Does #2 apply?
We call carbonated beverages "Coke" here. Even if we're talking about Pepsi. That's just how we do things.

I may live in Texas but my heart will always be in Minnesota. Carbonated beverages are "pop".

Anything with hamburger, tomato sauce and noodles is "goulash".

You need to expand the hot dish definition though, hon. It doesn't necessarily need hamburger or tater tots anymore.
It does need a cream of something soup, though.

Another vote from the Midwest for you, Jims.
I'd like mine with a vanilla shot, or at least a little rum.

What do you mean you're not taking drink orders?

Posted by yensid on 12-11-03 at 04:51 PM

It is soda for me, but I often use 'coke' to me a cola drink.

Though they tried to get me to call it "pop" when I went to school in the midwest, and they're huge fans of calling it ALL "Coke" here in the South.
Soda still wins.

And a long sandwich is a sub. But I'll bet some of you call it a grinder, or a hoagie, or a gyro, or pop, or something.

And don't get me started on "milkshake" versus "frappe," eastcoasters. Did I tell you lately my milkshake brings all the boys from the yard? Their life is better than yours.

"RE: Soda."
Posted by ExInterper on 12-11-03 at 05:22 PM

Yeah, east coasters have a few...well, let's just call them quirks.
And I never understood the sub being called a grinder. Unless it's heated or grilled. Then I might accept it. But not for cold ones.

Yet another Jslice masterpiece!
ExI personally loves the subs at a small chain in NH and Maine called Moe's. They have this awesome spicy oil that they add...yummy.

"RE: Soda."
Posted by Thaibeach on 12-11-03 at 05:54 PM

In this part of the East Coast, it's a wedge or a hero. We don't have no stinkin grinders. Just ask Slice.

A WEDGE? Are they triangular?

Never heard that one.

"RE: Soda."
Posted by Thaibeach on 12-11-03 at 07:08 PM

Nope, it's (god help me) sub-shaped just like heroes, grinders, subs, etc. "Wedge" is a very localized term (Bronx, Westchester are it, I think). DH is from Queens and calls it a hero. He's wrong, of course.

When I moved here from Mass. (to Michigan), the first day here, I brought some Pepsi to the cashier, and she says,"You want your Pop in a sack?" And I am like, "Do I want my WHAT in a WHAT?!?"
Pop is so wrong a name for Tonic (Soda is acceptable though )

Tonic = 100% of correct people.
Soda = Close second in being correct, close but no cigar!
Pop = 100% of misinformed people.
Winner thus far, By a landslide: Tonic!
