What do you call soda/pop?

[Leepaidamba]

Nope

Weird...

Was the first thing I thought of when I saw this thread.

[Ovisterra]

I tend to place them in the liquids category.

So you do not differentiate soft drinks from any other liquid? Wow... everyone around you must be pretty confused.

Yeah, can I have a large liquid and a hamburger meal?

[New East Ireland]

I don't need sarcasm. As long as Coca Cola can take the rust off of a car, I'm not drinking it.

You have ignorance. So you need sarcasm.

I have ignorance? Who are you to judge other people?

Not really. I say I want a drink, they say "what", I say "A Fanta"

So no. Saying a soda on the other hand will, because nobody will know what you want and you'll be wasting their precious time rather than tell you what you want within that fancy category of soda's.

Sex also gives you less energy.

But it can give you more self esteem.

I'm Wiztopia. Did you really have to ask a question to something you should already know?

This is a silly, pointless argument. Shush please.

Great answer. I was expecting you to say something along the lines of "God" or "Jesus".

[Brauzillia]

I usually say the brand name, as in Sprite, Coke (Coca Cola), I usually say Soda, as in Orange Soda and in a sentence, "May I get some soda?"

I say Coke for Coca Cola and Pepsi, Soda for Orange and other types of carbonated drinks and I use pop for nothing, I use brand names for most sodas

[Frenequesta]

In general, it's always a 'soda' to me, although I prefer to refer to it by the actual names. I get irked when people refer to it as pop, and I live in the Midwest.

[Arkinesia]

Yep. All soda causes heart attacks. Especially that bacon flavored one.

I don't need sarcasm. As long as Coca Cola can take the rust off of a car, I'm not drinking it.

Lemon juice is probably equally acidic, if not more so. Don't eat anything with lemon juice!—oh, that's like half of all US dishes.

It was an expression, I believe. I doubt Coke actually dissolves rust. But what is scary is the effect it has on teeth.

You are, of course, aware that the human stomach acids are far, far more powerful than anything in Coca-Cola, right?

Not sure if srs.... Sex only makes you exhausted temporarily, bro.

You know what else has an awful effect on teeth? Not taking care of them at all.

[Maraque]

I call it disgusting sugary beverage.

I love putting lemon juice in fried rice.

Not if you took a viagra.

Or just trolling? Trying to make a point? Maybe

Don't be ridiculous (too late, I know... "stop" being ridiculous.) In this case, you are calling the beverage "a drink". If I say "I want a soda." and a friend responded "What?" I would respond with the specific kind of soda.

Really, I cannot believe this needed to be explained.

Yes, I am. I'm just not comfortable drinking something that dissolves rust. I know stomach acids are bad, but at least they are inside of you because your body produces them.

True. I avoid excess amounts of that too (actually any amount, but whatever).

But Coke makes it a lot harder to keep your teeth in good shape.

There are plenty of things that you consume that could get your stomach churning.

And act as a pain killer.
