Welcome, welcome.

Have some rum.

I may have had a beer at lunch.

You webel.

 

[MidwestPrincess23]

I may have had a beer at lunch.

Seriously?? I did too!!! Well, I didn't eat anything - but it was lunch*time* anyway

*Preens*

Ever so British.

Well, Welsh.

Wouldn't the proper Welsh way be to make it with extra letters and pronounce it completely differently than it was spelled?

 

[EyesOnHers]

Well, aren’t you fancy… must be a proper UK thing.

Also, sounds a bit posh to call something by its proper name.

You'll be making sheep jokes next.

We could probably build the whole trilogy with gifs.

But I bet we could....

You mean, SODA?! Next you're going to tell us it's called Hotdish instead of Casserole (which is most certainly the CORRECT terminology here), aren't you!

Coke. They are all Coke. What kind of Coke you want? Orange. Sprite. Rootbeer.

And I've never heard of 'hotdish' until my daughter married a guy from Minnesoooooohtah. He's a changed man.

Thank you!

The machine says Coke, not Soda or Pop.

But...they're not!

If I asked someone for a Coke... and they threw me an orange pop... I'd be very disappointed!

 

[MidwestPrincess23]

Now... that being said, I know "pop" is very MN
If I'm anywhere but home, I call it soda

if you ask for a coke in texas the next words out of your servers mouth will be...what kind? all soda in texas is coke because all soda is coke, not Coke...i argued with my writing professor in college and my opinion hasnt changed. coke is both practically and grammatically correct...step...
