I call them all Coke. Orange coke, Grape coke, Pepsi
coke. Drove a cousin of mine crazy. 

cousin: "What do you want?" 

Me: "orange coke."

cousin: "Coke only comes in diet and normal."

Me: "Does not!" *reach into fridge and pull out Minute
Maid* "See! Orange coke!" 

cousin: O_o That's not a coke! That's orange pop! 

Me: It's an Orange coke. It's fizzy and carbonated,
thus coke. 

cousin: *sigh of frustration* 

Then again, I drove her crazy when she told me to give
her a pop and I smacked her. That's what pop to me is.
