I tend to call it "soft drinks".

Coke
Soda
Pop
Soda Water
Soda Pop
or something else?
I personally call everything coke. If asked I will say I want a coke and then specify which kind, usually a Dr. Pepper.
really though... because thats what it is. Saying pop sounds stupid, and saying soda is just esier. " soft drinks " is the most retarded thing i've ever heard .... its like you're a TV executive or something trying to sell a product ... lame ¬_¬

Saying "pop" makes you sound like a retard. Ugh, I feel retarded just typing it.
It's soda, but I don't mind when people refer to all of sodadom as "Coke". I couldn't call it a "cold drink" because I don't always have it cold (though it's always best cold). I don't call it a "soft drink" because that's dumb, and it isn't especially soft besides.

Heretics, all of you! Soft drinks are to be called 'limu' or 'limpsa' and...
*looks around*
*notices there are only about half a dozen Finns on SDnet*
Never mind...
Anyway, 'limu' is what we call soft drinks generally. When speaking english, I prefer to use the term soda, or soft drink.

Oh, and I guess I should have said I call them "Fizzy Lifting Drinks" due to my avatar.
