Pop, Soda or Soft Drink?

[Ender Rises]

I was just letting you know.

 

[Susperia]

And I was agreeing.

 

[Ender Rises]

Mkay.

I think it is even stranger what people call carbonated water. I myself call it seltzer of fizzy water, but I've heard some farfetched names.

 

[Ender Rises]

I call it seltzer or soda water.

 

[IWP]

Anyone who calls it pop is a fag. Interesting side not: I call it soda.

 

[Matt]

Soda water is awful. I can't stand it.

 

[Skepticism]

Maybe different up here in Canada than down there in the states, but I've never heard anyone say soda. And on menus here, it always says 'soft drink.'

 

[Rabid Headbanger]

I obviously didn't read the thread.

Plain carbonated water is called soda here. It's all the same to me. I don't drink this stuff.

Soft drink is the correct term.

The term soft drink originated so that you would be aware that it wasn't hard liquor. There's really no need to make this distinction now; it's quite clear. I usually say soda, but being in the middle of pop country, I sometimes slip into that. I'm not bothered by either. As long as you don't say Coke, it's fine. If you order a Dr. Pepper, it's not a fucking Coke.

You have to use some discretion, man. The whole "Sus just trying to start shit / lol arteest" thing is pretty irrelevant here. Not everything is open to trolling.

So you would consider beer a soft drink, since it isn't hard liquor?

I was actually doing a sort of deep commentary. Think about my statment and what you just posted reeeeeaaaaal hard. (Harder then a priest at a playground) and you'll find the meaning.

It's pop, you twats.

As a kid in Calif. (in the 70s), everything was Coke.

Hey, I'm not the one who came up with the term. But I think that any drinks with alcohol were considered hard, and other things were soft drinks. Of course, this probably originated in the '30s, or maybe even earlier. The soft drinks section of the menu at many restaurants has juices, iced tea, etc.

Nevermind, just check this:

Coke

NOT POP

 

[Evil?]

Anybody who calls it "coke" when they are in fact not drinking "Coke" is a worthless piece of shit and should fucking die.

That being said I use Soda and Pop interchangeably.
