Originally posted by TheSkipperI'm from Los Angeles, and "pop" is from elsewhere. One of my childhood friends who had to move around a lot due to his father's job used that phrase. He spent time in Missouri and Florida as well as Saudi Arabia and Oakland. I don't remember hearing that word in my time in the Bay Area either.
Pop?! are you from the western US?
Oh, and uh...Coke is it. Particularly diet coke.
