For those of you who do not understand calling it coke: where do you put your soda / pop to keep it cold? A refrigerator or an ice box?

Yeah I love an icebox-cold coke, especially wearing britches still warm from the electric washtub, right after a running-water shower in the indoor outhouse. Then I'll get on dial-up with my mainframe and watch pong kinetoscopes on Justin.tv.

Calling it soda, good. Calling it pop, fine. Calling every soft drink a coke, fuck off.

Stupid shit like this hits hard to some folks in the south. I have family members are pissed how "everything is changing", so much in fact that this very thing caused a disturbance at a local college pub. Last year, one of my dumbass family members was thrown out for being rude. When I asked him what happened he said...

" That god damn Yankee girl wanted to know if I wanted a fucking pop. What the fuck is a pop? So I asked her. She said something like a soda or whatever and I told her, it's a fucking coke and she needs to go back to fucking Chicago and get fucked. Don't bring your stupid shit down here."

Even more f'd up, is he would have ordered a Sprite.

I dislike a few of my relatives.

~~Shm.~~ Smh. The fucking people who call all sodas "coke".

Them: What kind of Ford do you drive? Me: a Chevy.

It's from Coca-Cola (headquartered in Atlanta) having total dominance of the south for a long time.
