«Bellyflops» ok, so no movie, i guess, since no reply. i'm logging off. adios (Sep 12, 2002 @ 6:26pm) «Mamalissa!» Sorry. I was in another window. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 6:28pm) «jaye» jaci's an angel. curls up in the corner of the wall and takes a nap (Sep 12, 2002 @ 6:29pm) «jaye» msnbs weighs in on pop vs soda. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 6:58pm) «jaye» or msnbc even (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:00pm) «jaye» that was an interesting slip. goes to show the high regard i have for the media :P (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:00pm) «Jan Klump» come on pop folks, vote at jaci's link. soda is winning there. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:07pm) «nate...» that's because it's what the stuff is called. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:07pm) «jaye» hey! (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:07pm) «nate...» if you wanted to sound like someone from a hokey 50's movie, you could use pop.... but.... (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:07pm) «jaye» darn right it's soda (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:07pm) «nate...» I think the woman in that article hit it on the head....... "pop" has always been, to me.. .in the same realm as "groovy" "gee whiz" "golly" and other such words...... (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:09pm) «nate...» outdated and laaaame. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:09pm) «jaye» jaci's an angel. was raised by pop people. they also listen to rush limbaugh. draw your own conclusions *grin* (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:10pm) «Jan Klump» yes, pop, no rush limbaugh (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:11pm) «jaye» heehee (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:11pm) «nate...» see, younger people are the majority on the internet in general... hence the reason soda is winning...... the old folks still use pop, tho. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:12pm) «nate...» I think it dates people just as much as it regionalizes them.... (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:13pm) «Jan Klump» ooooooh (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:13pm) «Jan Klump» melinda, do you know this nate guy? (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:14pm) «jaye» *laugh* (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:14pm) «Jan Klump» where's my daughter when i need her? (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:14pm) «nate...» heehee.... just pickin on ya, Jan. :) (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:14pm) «nate...» But I do think it's true to an extent..... (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:15pm) «Jan Klump» ya, ya, after checking on my age, no doubt (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:15pm) «nate...» yep... I made the comment after checking your age..... I made the retraction after waiting for a reaction. :) (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:16pm) «nate...» But, in all seriousness... I do think one's generation plays a large roll. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:16pm) «Jan Klump» :) (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:17pm) «Jan Klump» I live in the east now and say soda in public....put underneath it's still pop to me (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:17pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» pop is regional. the end. read the article. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:18pm) «nate...» when in rome.... (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:18pm) «nate...» largely regional.. yes... but not entirely.... I do think age and generation plays a roll. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:18pm) «Mamalissa!» do as the romanians do. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:18pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» if i was still in michigan, i would be saying pop. i don't agree that age has anything to do with it. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:19pm) «Jan Klump» I don't think you'll catch anyone in Michigan saying soda unless they want ice cream in their pop (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:19pm) «nate...» just like when I was in ireland... I had to ask for a can of "minerals" (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:19pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» and frankly, as a person who as far as i know has never lived in the midwest, i'm not sure you're qualified to say, nate. no offense. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:20pm) «jaye» i can't think of anywhere in seattle i'd go to -get- ice cream in my soda (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:20pm) «nate...» I spent the whole time thinking it was some kind of joke they were playing on me... and at any time, they'd all burst out laughing and say, "HAHAH!!! did you ACTUALLY think we'd call it that?? you stupid american!" (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:20pm) «nate...» melinda: I'm as qualified as anyone here.... having known plenty of people from the midwest... and having been out there a bit. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:20pm) «Jan Klump» jaci, don't they have ice cream sodas in Seattle? (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:21pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» did you grow up there? honestly, i've been back to my hometown and every single person still says pop. young or old. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:21pm) «nate...» as I said, I'm not saying it's as important as region... but it does play a roll. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:21pm) «Jan Klump» "been out there a bit" means what, nate? (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:21pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» the only reason i say soda is so that people out here will understand me. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:22pm) «jaye» if they do, i've never stumbled across one. of course, i probably haven't been paying attention (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:22pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» and as i said, i disagree. the only people i know from michigan who say soda (young or old) are people who have moved to someplace where they say pop. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:22pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» or soda rather (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:22pm) «Jan Klump» now there's a new twist....a region that doesn't have ice cream sodas (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:22pm) «Jan Klump» right, melinda (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:23pm) «nate...» well, you're entitled to comment on your personal experience, and I'm entitled to comment on mine. :) (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:23pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» well, as a native, i think i have a lot more personal experience. :) (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:23pm) «nate...» there, yes. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:23pm) «Jan Klump» your limited personal experience, it appears, nate (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:23pm) «nate...» here, no. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:23pm) «nate...» point being... I only speak from what I've seen and heard. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:23pm) «nate...» and so do you. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:24pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» my point being i am from frickin' michigan. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:24pm) «Jan Klump» i'm moving on to beasi.net (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:24pm) «nate...» you've obviously not talked to everyone in michigan any more than I have. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:24pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» well i spent 18 years of my life talking to pretty much only people in michigan every day. and they all said pop. every single one. i never heard "soda" until i went to college in pittsburgh. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:24pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» my point is that it's regional. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:25pm) «jaye» i'm sorry - i didn't mean to start this up again - i just thought it was funny that they ran a story on it right after we had the poll (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:25pm) «nate...» welp... maybe it's dependant on where in michigan... I know quite a few people from ann arbor and that area who say soda.. *shrugs* (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:25pm) «jaye» bye jan! (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:25pm) «nate...» I'm just surprised that the midwesterners are getting all worked up. *laughs* (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:25pm) «nate...» it's not like it's anything to get offended over. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:26pm) «nate...» "how dare you say that you've met people from my state who say soda?!?!?!" (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:26pm) «Jan Klump» people who grew up in ann arbor or went to college there? (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:26pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» we're getting worked up because we're sick of people saying that our phrase is inferior. when truly there is no real differencce. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:26pm) «nate...» grew up. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:26pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» i'm just sick of the frickin' snobbery. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:26pm) «nate...» who's being a snob?? *confused look* (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:26pm) «nate...» It's all just good-natured ribbing... sheesh. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:27pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» read the recent fhdc poll, and hear everyone say that people who say pop are uneducated or it irks them to hear it. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:27pm) «nate...» right.... and... perhaps you should learn to take a joke? (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:27pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» i'm sick of it. i've been hearing it for too many years, and it always comes with a smirk. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:27pm) «nate...» just a thought.... (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:28pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» whatever. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:28pm) «Jason Reiser» It's *phosphate* you troglodytes! (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:28pm) «nate...» *laughs* (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:28pm) «nate...» maybe that's the thing we should do.. just ALL start calling it something else entirely.. so melinda won't flip. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:28pm) «nate...» how about "bob" (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:28pm) «Jan Klump» by the way, we did order phosphates when I was growing up, but it wasn't the same as pop. :) (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:29pm) «Jason Reiser» at least phosphate is historically accurate. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:29pm) «nate...» jan: really? what was it? (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:29pm) «Jason Reiser» yeah? what were they? (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:29pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» nate, i don't care if you call it soda or pop. i'm just sick of my regionalisms being mocked. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:29pm) «nate...» melinda: well, I wasn't mocking them... so I don't understand why you're getting all worked up, that's all. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:30pm) «Jason Reiser» Pop: a style of music; Coke: a product of the Coca-Cola Bottling Company; Soda: a child's name (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:31pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» nate, because people have been making that "joke" since I was 18. It stopped being funny a long time ago. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:32pm) «Jan Klump» you know, I can't remember just what was in a phosphate. Flavoring and extra fizzy soda water??? (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:33pm) «nate...» melinda: what "joke" are you referring to? I'm honestly lost here.... (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:33pm) «Melinda J. Beasi» the one you think i should learn to take. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:33pm) «Jason Reiser» I'm guessing it was like most soda/pop/coke was in the 50s - carbonated water and syrup mixed on the spot. (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:33pm) «nate...» right.... but.... when did I say anything snobbish or mean to cause you to attack *me*? (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:34pm) «Jan Klump» but we ordered phosphates at the counter and bought pop in a bottle (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:34pm) «Jason Reiser» I'm just glad my job isn't "soda jerk". Imagine how they felt about the symantics of this whole thing! (Sep 12, 2002 @ 7:34pm) « Previous 100 entries | Next 100 entries »
