Can you believe this Baptist church's sign? The Irish-style apologetics seem to be working!
P.S. For the humor-impaired, this is a joke.

When I was about to graduate from pharmacy school in Mississippi, a young lady told me that she knew that I was not from Mississippi because I say "soda" instead of "coke."
Just remember when you're down here, if you refuse to call them "cokes" (co-colers is the preeminent coke, all others being pale imitations,) you can call them "soft drinks" and no one will laugh.
You should change "drink" to "tea," because that's what it would be.
It could be a sodapop... is soda ok with the Baptists?
And do they call it pop or soda?
Amen - no Marty tunes!!
Here in Georgia, it's either sweet tea or Coke. Unless it's Sprite, in which case it's still Coke.
How do you tell the difference btwn Sprite and Coke if it's all Coke?
I agree with Mr. Cork: it's all Coke. Even when it's Pepsi. The easy way to tell the difference is Sprite drinkers are all Yankees.
In Virginia, it's NOT "Coke." It's "Co-cola"!
It's all Coke. Ask for a Coke (meaning that you want a Coca-Cola) and the waitress will ask you, "What kinda Coke you want, darlin'?"
I drink water, mostly. And I've never been asked what kind I want.
Here in Texas it's all Coke as well.
I knew my future husband to be a Yankee on our first date when he said, "Wanna go over to the Dairy Queen and get a pop?"
I looked at him with wide eyes--A POP????
Fortunately for me, I went with him anyway. And yes, he still calls them pops. Weird man. 27 years of livin' in Texas and he still doesn't get it.

I've always enjoyed the overt formalism of "carbonated beverage." Indeed, there are but three types of consumable items:
Carbonated beverage
Non-carbonated beverage
Non-beverage refreshment
"Please enjoy your carbonated beverage. May it be a refreshing and thirst-quenching experience."

Well, not too much anyway.
