    Stupid shit like this hits hard to some folks in the south. I have family members are pissed how “everything is changing”, so much in fact that this very thing caused a disturbance at a local college pub. Last year, one of my dumbass family members was thrown out for being rude. When I asked him what happened he said…

    " That god damn Yankee girl wanted to know if I wanted a fucking pop. What the fuck is a pop? So I asked her. She said something like a soda or whatever and I told her, it’s a fucking coke and she needs to go back to fucking Chicago and get fucked. Don’t bring your stupid shit down here."

    Even more f’d up, is he would have ordered a Sprite.

    I dislike a few of my relatives.

      Sprites are great, what’s with all this sprite slander? Sprite, Sierra Mist, etc are the best sodas.

        You’re missing how it works; you ask for a Coke, the server says what kind, and you say Sprite.

          Has this ever actually happened? Every restaurant I’ve ever been to in any state or country in the world has taken coke to mean Coca Cola.

          The closest I’ve ever heard is “Is Pepsi fine?” if they don’t have actual Coca Cola.

        Why you gotta leave out the og? 7up is the quintessential lemon lime beverage. Much better in a cocktail, IMO.

      While my own similar rant would have been only meant in play, this is how I feel about both o’ y’all. It’s a fucking soda. Gonna just go all the way and call sweet tea a coke too?
