March 16, 200521 yr I'd say about half those are true of me. They exaggerate some things, like the opera glasses. Pretty good though.

But I gotta say, it doesn't matter where you're at, IT'S POP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you. Oh, and I love RC. Good pop that.

March 17, 200521 yr QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 16, 2005 -> 12:59 PM) um, what's a pole cat? A skunk

March 17, 200521 yr Cola is a dark soft drink. Soda is a dark soft drink. "Pop" includes all, dark and clear drinks. I don't think of 7-Up and Sprite as Soda.
March 18, 200521 yr That's really absurd and i can't believe anyone would write anything like that. You could call that slander, what lies. I'm apalled. Everyone has a can of WD-40.
March 18, 200521 yr QUOTE(The Critic @ Mar 16, 2005 -> 02:21 PM) uhhhh...........................no. Soda, muthuhhhf***aaahhhh! That's right b****! Pop makes you sound like a bubble gum, valley girl teenager. Pop is so unsophisticated.
March 18, 200521 yr Yeesh, I live in Tejas and I had no clue what a pole cat is. I still have no idea how a pole cat is a skunk, then again I call pretty much all soft drinks "coke" so what do I know?
March 18, 200521 yr QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Mar 17, 2005 -> 09:27 PM) Cola is a dark soft drink. Soda is a dark soft drink. "Pop" includes all, dark and clear drinks. I don't think of 7-Up and Sprite as Soda. That's per-verse! But then how do you justify 'soda water'? 'Soda' should be restricted to that by(long)gone era when they actually had soda fountains and sock hops and danced the twist, or maybe the Charleston, who knows anymore. I can respect 'soda pop', or better, 'sodie pop'. But that's where I draw the line.
March 18, 200521 yr If you're going to say soda is no longer legit without soda fountains, how in the hell to you justify 'pop'? What about it makes it pop?

Being from Illinois, I say it's pop simply by the beauty of the democratic process. Note the study's "conclusion" -- "People who say "Pop" are much, much cooler." Science says snaaaap. Edited March 18, 200521 yr by jackie hayes
March 18, 200521 yr Definitely Pop. How many people do you know that say "give me a soda please?" Second to Pop is just "coke". Even though it could be RC, Pepsi, or Coke. Everyone knows a pole cat is a skunk. Don't you people ever watch toons? Boomerang is educational
March 18, 200521 yr I get yelled at for saying pop in NJ. Don't they understand that people drink pop and soda is just a mixer?
