[@gustafsone]

One of the weirdest regional things in the US is how people talk about soft drinks. Where I grew up (IN) everyone called every drink a coke. If you were in a restaurant and asked for a coke, they would then ask you what kind you wanted. Not as in "diet coke, or cherry coke" but as in "do you want a regular coke, a sprite, a root beer, a dr. pepper, etc). I was staying with a friend in Michigan one time, and everything was a pop, "what kind of pop do you want?". Now I live in a big city out on the west coast and (I think) everything is referred to as "soda". It's kind of weird out here, though, since there are a lot of transplants so you might hear a bit of everything depending on where you go.
