What gets your knickers in a bunch?

[Spartan Tartan]

To be fair, the word is being shortened in the North and the South...it is Soda Pop. I have never understood why people concern themselves with which half I select to use.

On the other hand, if I order a "Coke", there is no room for discussion. There should be only ONE drink brought to me. There should be no additional clarification (i.e. Oh, would you like a sprite, pepsi, etc...).
