What can make a nigga wanna fight a whole night club/Figure that he ought to maybe be a pimp simply 'cause he don't like love/What can make a nigga wanna achy, break all rules/In a book when it took a lot to get you hooked up to this volume/
What can make a nigga wanna loose all faith in/Anything that he can't feel through his chest wit sensation

Hoagie is a ****ing cold sandwich on a long roll. What else would you call it? Subs and heroes mean other ****. It's a hoagie. Nothing else. Can't stand New Yorkers with their hero nonsense. Who the **** calls a sandwich a hero? Where did that retarded connection come from?"Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

New York must thank God every night that Philly exists. Philly is the only thing saving New York from being the most crass.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

As you can see the Northeast and California prefer to use the term "soda" as the generic term for a soft drink (there are also large pockets of sanity in the upper midwest ) while most of the north of the country goes with "pop". Now, to my ears "pop" sounds slightly strange a vaguely yokelish but it is at least a reasonable phrase to describe a generic soft drink, that said, WTF is up with the south? Why do you rebel scum have to refer to everything as a "coke"? Don't you know that's a specific brand and not a generic term? I've remarked on this southern colloquialism several times in my travels but I always thought it was more confined to specific areas (especially around Atlanta due to Coca-Cola having it's HQ there) but it turns out just about all of you use the wrong word.A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.
