SODA!!! 🤩👊🤙

pop is getting smaller and towards the midwest, eventually it will just be minisoda.

We have them on the run, boys!

That's because Soda was originally said by the most population dense areas of the country.

By default, that gives it a huge advantage in terms of shifting the cultural language. Especially since Hollywood often controls the cultural shifts and narratives of colloquial language.

So this isn't too surprising. It's kind of like the whole "Land doesn't get a vote" thing when you look at the Red vs Blue district voting graphs, without taking into account the majority of people live in the blue areas, and very few people, comparatively, live in the red areas.

This visualization is pretty much the same thing.

Maybe the Pop and Soda users can at least band together to get Coke removed forever before returning to their own fight. I don't know really know which of those two I prefer, but it is insane to refer to a Mountain Dew as a Coke.

I'm from GA, and I never understood people calling all soda a coke. Giving someone a Pepsi when they asked for a coke is enough to start an altercation around here -- they are not at all considered interchangeable

It's pop and I will die on this hill

Meanwhile in my part of the world

L E M O N A D E

for literally every fizzy drink

Soda is carbonated water.

Pop is dad.

In Australia, they're called soft drinks because they have little or no alcohol in them.

Pop propaganda

Dr Pepper is king either way

Born in a pop stronghold, and it is still holding. Coke is a brand, not all pop!

Softdrink

sodi pops

Fizzy drink for me in the UK, although most other people I know call it 'sparkling'

I stopped needing to refer to carbonated beverages in everyday language like decades ago

Pass me a fizzy beverage, my good sir.

I grew up almost exclusively hearing "pop," and use it in casual situations, but I prefer to use "soda" in public. Asking a server what kind of "pop" they have seems odd to me, but at the same time asking a friend if I can grab a "soda" seems odd as well.

I met him in a swamp down in Dagoba Where it bubbles all the time like a giant carbonated soda S O D A, soda

I say 'Soda' but with a Midwestern accent to compromise.

This is Sody Pop erasure

"You want a beautiful name? Soda."

GOOD! I grew up living in the north-east and we called it "Soda", then moved west and kept hearing people say "pop" and it was the most annoying thing, glad to see everyone else is coming around to the correct name.

As a Coke, I have to say I never soda this coming

I mean, I moved to Michigan from one of the soda areas, and I give people shit when they say pop so. Am I the baddie, no it is they who are wrong.

I'm doing my part to fight back, moved to California from Michigan and my girlfriend used to say pop ironically but she's said it so much now she uses it too.

Question for the folks in the gray area... Are you all referring to all brands and flavors of carbonated soft drinks as 'Coke,' or has Coca-Cola beat out all competitors there, or how does that work?

The arc of history bends toward justice.
