Big image here since it doesn't show Canada in the one previously posted:
As for me, "pop" (as most of the Canadian dots indicate). Wth, if people call all "carbonated beverages" coke, does that mean they call pepsi coke too? That's like calling all cars a Ford etc.
We don't call it soda or pop (or coke, unless it's coke) here in Aus, from my experience it's either name it by name (coke, pepsi, fanta etc.) or we call it soft drink as the general term.
Also, pepsi is disgusting, coke ftw.
you beat me to it.

Neither - it's fizzy juice or their respective names (i.e. Coke, Diet Coke etc)

I call it by the name of the drink.
But I guess I call it soda also, but I have been known to refer to it as pop as well :/

Down here if someone asks for a coke, they're asked "what kind?"
Also, pepsi is delicious

Where do you live?
I know if someone asks for a coke i'll give them a coke.
Only time I see coke referred to soda in general is when a place has "Coke products" or "pepsi products"

Only time I see coke referred to soda in general is when a place has "Coke products" or "pepsi products" Clearly his avi says he is from Louisiana. It's the same here in Georgia. You just live in Florida the redheaded stepchild of the Southeast.

Soda sounds bad
Pop makes me instantly hate you and want to see casey v richtard replayed
Nearly makes me rage as much as this Canadian at my job who pronounces the letter Z as "zed" instead of "zee" like its *** supposed to be.

I use drink or drank(for the lulz). My mom on the other hand says coke for everything, even water is coke.
"Do you want something to drink?"
"Do you have anything to drink?"

"Supposed to be" wouldn't exactly be the right term seeing as most languages pronounce "Zed" or a similar sounding word which is closer to it's native Latin name. Long story short, we are doing it wrong not the. Same with us not using metric.

Tell a Canadian to spell the name Zed for the lulz.
Normal folks > Zed = Z - E - D
Canadian troll > Zed = Zed - E - D
Its some kind of hellish endless loop of *** up pronunciation.
