Taosson 0 #77 December 17, 2002 It is all Coke, the product Coke is called Coca Cola and I grew up in New Mexico. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpeedRacer 1 #78 December 17, 2002 I call it soda. like a normal person.Pop is what hicks call it. Calling it Coke is like calling all beer Bud. Imagine drinking a Guinness & saying you're having a Bud?? Only old people in New England call it "tonic". People under 50 usually call it soda. Other weird shit New ENglanders say: Grinder = submarine sandwich (another old person thing) jimmies = chocolate sprinkles "So aren't you!" actually means "So are you!" "I could care less about x!" actually means, "I couldn't care less about x!" and instead of saying "What are you, an idiot?!" They say, "What're you, retahded?!"

SpeedRacer 1 #80 December 17, 2002 Speaking of weird New England shit... Do you ever see that chef Emeril on the Food Channel?? I'm pretty sure he's from New England (based on his accent). He appears to be in his 40s or so, but he keeps referring to the refrigerator as an "ice box." And I have never heard anyone younger than mid fifties or so call it that. Is Emeril even old enough to personally remember ice boxes?? Speed Racer -------------------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpeedRacer 1 #83 December 17, 2002 Yeah, talk about arrogant...New Yorkers referring to NYC as The City. Another screwy thing about people from NYC. They refer to the suburbs as "The Country"!!

His accent would be influenced by Portuguese (aka pork-n-cheese). Conan O'Brien has family in Rhode Island, The Farraley Brothers (Dumb and Dummer, Something About Mary) are RIers Leo LaPorte's mother lives in Pawtucket, RI 'Grace' from Will and Grace lived in RI when she was in High School There are others... _________________________________________________ If you hadn't read this, would it have made a sound?

airann 1 #87 December 17, 2002 Jessica, I am in agreement. Want something to drink? a Coke, or something? or something can mean - alcohol, milk, water, ... Reading this thread has been an experience in many ways. It seems to go differently depending on what side you were on during the Cival War. The wording Pop is a violent word to me thus alarming, its an action word. So I dont like it. Soda is something you get MD20/20 out of your shirt with, I think. At least as best I can remember from the new shows on Trailer and Garden TV. This Old Trailer, Trailer Gardens by the inch, and Martha's Trailer. I did not know that there was a Mntn Dew Code Red, and some of these Fanta flavors.... Although RedBull is sponsoring quite a few skydivers. It is not mentioned. Nor is SoBe. In case in one cares. I like a cup o' Joe in different ways depending on what time it is. First thing in the morning, I like it real CRUNCHY with milk and double sugar. That is MY jet Fuel. ~AirAnn~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KawiZX900 0 #89 December 17, 2002 soda, or coke. drink pepsi but dont call it that. Accelerate hard to get them looking, then slam on the fronts and rollright beside the car, hanging the back wheel at eye level for a few seconds.
