I have to say i absolutely LOVE this.... how true it is! Now, my county in SC is deep in the COKE block, but we also say "a drink" for anything cold and non-alcoholic! I had to put it on my own blog. Thanks for sharing it.
I was hanging out with (okay, fucking) this redneck when my son was two. He would seriously call it sody-pop. Anyway, he was good in the sack and my son liked him and he liked the term 'sody-pop' because it appealed to his two-year-old persona.
My mom heard my son repeat said and tossed him such a vibe (my mother is all about the vibe) that he never uttered the expression sody-pop again.

ReplyDeleteGrowing up (and even now and again) we called them soft drinks. Now it ranges from that to calling it by it's real name , coke, pepsi, dr pepper etc.
ReplyDeleteI guess I would have been an other on the map.
Todd: Glad to share! I'll call mine a drink more than I will anything else.
ReplyDeleteMuddy: A list like that allows for a few variations, I would guess
How cool! I say soda. I seem to be in the minority for my county.

I'm all over sody-pop.
D: I wish they had biggger samples in some places. My county only had six responses.
ReplyDeleteHeather: I can imagine what your mom's vibe felt like from here after that. If Mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy ;-)
