What gets your knickers in a bunch?

Ack, you're both wrong - neither pop nor soda. It's a soft drink!

Actually, it's a Coke, even if it's a Dr. Pepper or a Pepsi. Aroiund here, we ask, "Want a Coke?" If the answer is affirmative, we then ask, "What kind? They have Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, Seven-up, . . ."

I only recognize two kinds of sodas, Coke, which is primarily for mixing with Jack Daniels, and Dr.Pepper which is for everything else.....

Now, what will get my knickers in a bunch is when I ask for a Coke or a Jack and Coke, and they say "is Pepsi OK?" My reponse to that is usually "Sure, is Monopoly money OK?"

And, unlike all colas, Dr. Pepper can be served hot in the winter.

I simply see that as the person effectively saying they don't have Coke, and offering the closest match.

I dont recognize "cokes" or any of the like! Around these parts, it's pop! ;)

People who use "you", when they mean "your".

Intelligent people, people with qualifications that took years to achieve, people who run their own profitable businesses, people who are community leaders, people with responsibilities and dependants and others that look up to them - can't tell the difference.

"Move you car!"
"Pull you pants up."
"I like you kilt, you wear it well."

How have they managed to live so long?

Yes, I've heard that, but you're from GA, home state of 'Coke', so what else should we expect?

Actually it's "do you want a coke" and if they actually do then they want a co-cola.

My grandfather, who was born in north Mississippi and lived most of his life in Memphis, called it that.

How about brand new cars that are not equipped with turn signals? Or the fact that "yield" now means "only if you have time and are so inclined"?
