Re: Do you want a coke, a pop, or a soda?

According to the map, every single county in Connecticut refers to it as soda in the 80-100% category.

I always get annoyed at the general "coke" terminology, especially when people use it to refer to non-cola soft drinks. It's one thing to use it in a general sense for any cola soft drink, but when someone once asked me "Where'd ya buy the coke?" when I was drinking a Mountain Dew, that's where I draw the line.
