What word do you use for 'soft drinks'?

I question if people didn't get that I understood it's what they grew up with

Soda pop

@thegerg: yeah that's already a given

America, do you accept me

Fatty Juice.

Soft/Fizzy drink, though many just say the brand.

I have a co-worker from Texas who calls it "soda water".

I call it "pop", and I live in Minnesota where many others call it that. I've heard people call "pop" a dumb word for soft drinks, but "soda water" sounds fucking terrible. It's even worse than referring to all soft drinks as "Coke".

You obviously don't live in Minnesota (or anywhere in the upper Midwest for that matter). :P

Soft Drink, but I usually call it by its name (Coke, Root Beer, Dr. Pepper, etc.).

@thegerg: I wasn't confused about why people used it, I was confused about why they used it

wat?

Gosh. I know that it's a regional thing and that it's widespread because of how it was used when they were growing up. I question the logic of why it makes any sense to use it in that way. Thegerg simply can't think in multiple levels

I clicked on this thread for the sole purpose of seeing how people could possibly turn this into an argument. Congratulations. This is the dumbest argument on the internet.

As for participating in the thread -- I call soda "poison."

@IMAHAPYHIPPO: who's arguing?

People are merely talking about the topic. Silly to overblow talking with arguing

I'm in the UK and I mostly call it 'soft drink'. Although other times I say pop for fizzy drinks, and juice for, well, juice. But past few years it's just been 'soft drink'

@thegerg: I don't think you understand the actual topic at hand with regards to what logic is being talked about

booze.

I hope America understands that we didn't fight or anything today

@thegerg: I can't explain such a simple concept in a different way. It's not a simple thing to teach you how to process events like a normal human being.

soft drink

we call it sodavand

this was fun

Jesus Juice

How the hell has this topic had 130 comments lol

I Just call soft drink by it's actual name, sprite, coke, you get me.

Soda is bad

Coke or Soda.

Depends where I am at. With my mom I say soda but with a Mexican accent. When I'm with my friends or the rest of the family I say pop. In restaurants I call them drinks or by brand name.

It's called ginger. "Geez a can a ginger"

Fizzy drink

Native tongue I call it "Brus"

In English I call it Soda

I usually say "soda".

Soda. A lot of people here call it pop though. Sounds too inbred for me personally.

I usually name the brand. But if I do refer generally then I use pop.

i call it by Brand name.

Soda.
