Me and MichaelVash had a conversation about this over AIM, and sorta arguing (not really) about what is the proper way to call it.

I say it's "Pop"


Soda = anything that has carbonated water
Cokes = a flavor of a pop
Beverage = can mean anything


Soda-Pop is probably the most proper way to call it, but I call it "pop" anyways, and so does everyone else who lives up here in Wisconsin.

Most of the time it is coke. If I am ordering something it may be soda or just the coke's name like Dr. Pepper or whatever.

Example convo #1:
Me: Hey do you want a coke?
Friend: Sure, what kind you got?
M: Dr. Pepper or Moutain Dew.

#2
M: Hey do you want a coke?
F: Sure.
M: What kind you want?

I call it soda, most people on the west coast do. I notice that in the mid-west they do tend to call it pop, so when I am visiting family in Missouri I call will refer to it as pop. I have never heard anyone past the age of 8 call it soda-pop with the exception of on old television shows like Happy Days.

I call it soda, and coke. I occasionally say pop, because I lived up in Idaho. I asked my friend if she wanted to go get a soda with me and she was like, "Soda..?" and I had to clarify by saying "pop..?" XD

In my experiance, my family in the northern states calls it Pop, and my family in the southern states calls it soda. Traveling between the two so much, I've just learned to call it what it is (Pepsi, Coke, etc).
