I was just looking at the results of this question online. I think it's an interesting question b/c we say pop in Michigan and I heard like no other state says it. I guess it drives the other states nuts......It drives me crazy to hear anything but POP!! :lol:

Clea probably says soda though.......I guess i can learn to live with that ;)

I tried to vote Margot, however, this message comes up telling me in short that there's something wrong with my noggin. I call them soft drinks. I actually don't know why I call it that, because they're nasty and sharpo in yer throat. Not soft and smooth and gentle like the name would give way. Super funny, I worked on this island for 5 months with all american customers and the owners were also American. They always used to say pop in the cutest way. Well the people from Minnesota did anywho. I loved the accents from the south and they loved mine. They'd always make me say "out and about in a boat" although I didn't think ti was as funny as they thought. :blink:

I dont like pop.....but it always interests me what other people call it!! this is my little research study i guess :D

One of my friends went to school in new york and he said everyone would get so mad at him b/c he said pop......i never really thought about it before....

Thats weird that people from minnosota were asking you to say things that emphasize your accent (maybe you met the southern people)....b/c my grandma is from canada and people from places like the U.P. in michigan....and wisconsin/minnosota sound canadian to me.....hmmmmmm..... :huh:

My step mum is from Stoke which is North/ Midland Area of england and she calls it pop, i hate it too, but Soda isn't really a word we use much here, so I say soft drink.

I call them mixers ;)

"Oi! More Rum and less coke, ye bastard!"
For me though, it's like I've given birth to my own baby girl. You know? Only she's, like, a big giant girl who smokes and says "shit" a lot.

I love Archers and Lemonade, but I'm not so keen on Mixers in all my drinks, I like Drambuwi on its own, mostly archers on its own, and well they are the only spirits I drink, more of a beer or baileys girl.

Gin and tonic kinda of girl eh Linz? I'll second that emotion. The only slight problem with my love of gin is that I get particularily roudy after a few...maybe 10 or so. You know one leads to ten of course. Advantadges of gin are also apparent however. I build alot of liquid courage with gin, I once threw cake in my friends face because he was being pervy. Ahhhh...gin :rolleyes:

:lol: Yeh! My auntie always orders a G&T....

Gin is cool though, and I like GinTeals and their variations, but Gin is a depressant so I have to figure out my mood before I start on it.
For me though, it's like I've given birth to my own baby girl. You know? Only she's, like, a big giant girl who smokes and says "shit" a lot.
