That's right. If it's a machine you put money into that dispenses drinks, it's a Coke machine. If I say "You want a Coke?" be prepared for the follow up question, "What kind?" Don't offer me a pop, a soda, a Pepsi, or a soft drink. Offer me a Coke, and then be sure and find out whether I want Coke, Cherry Coke, Pepsi, Mountain Dew, or any other available carbonated beverage.
 

Dammed Yankees! I work with a bunch of yanks and as annoying as the word Pop is the worst hands down is when they go on a soda run. They ask me what I want, I say coke, they bring me a coke. What is this I say, why didn't you ask me what I wanted. They stair at me blankly, "You said you wanted a coke."
I don't drink coke
They know I don't drink coke
Dammed Yankees!

Being as I have lived in Hillbilly Redneck Hell for all of my life I find the Y'all debate sort of funny, anybody that show up and calls people y'all sounds like a yankee trying to fit in.

Nope, the problem is that y'all is so deeply engrained that a real southerner never knows he's usen' it. but we can spot a yank every time.;)
 

I once worked on a oil rig with a guy from Boston, our accents were so different we could not communicate with each other, we had to have a translator. (for the record I was born in Mobile Alabama and have lived the vast majority of my life in Western Kentucky.) It was sort of funny, he talked so fast I couldn't figure out what he was saying and he turned every o sound into a (I'm from Bastan, my caffe is ta hat.......you get the picture), he said I talked too slow and slurred my words together.
 


Ice tea story

I was born in the South and have lived the majority of my life there, but have had the opportunity to live in various other parts of the country. I am part of a LARP group out of Atlanta. Several years ago we attended a national event that took place in Ohio. About a dozen of us made the trip up I-75. As a group we were well educated and intelligent. However, there were several people in our group that have never been north of the Mason Dixon line. We told them that things might be a little bit different that what they were used to.

We had crossed the state line from Kentucky to Ohio and were trying to find a place to eat. We soon found a Quincy's steak house and went inside to eat. The majority of our party ordered Tea. (I have never developed a taste for it, so I had Dr Pepper instead) The waitress came around with our drink order. One of the more unitiated of our group took a big swallow of his ice tea and shouted out "This isn't sweet tea!" He ranted for several minutes on that fact as the rest of us tried to explain to him that they don't make different batches of ice tea, North of the Mason Dixon line and that he was lucky it was July, otherwise the only tea availalbe would have been hot.
