One of the most burning questions of our times happens to be what you call your favorite soft drink...
I'm a pop man myself

I too call it pop. And it was hard habit to break, but I finally got my wife to start calling it pop also. Took a little while to get that part of NY out of her.

Having traveled in the South, that is one of the funniest things about going there.
"What'll you have hon, Coke?"
"Sure"
"What kind?"
"
, Coke"
"What kind of Coke?"

When I say Coke™, I mean Coke™. (Clearly the servers don't always notice the little ™ inflection.)
When I speak in generic terms, I say soda.

I've always said soda for the most part, but once in awhile I'll catch myself saying pop.

I usually say, I need a cold one. But it will all come down to saying pop.

I'm a "pop" guy myself, but I think it basically breaks down to what region of the country(s) you're from. Very few areas probably have much of a mixture of the various choices.
I even know places where they use none of the above, but instead call it a "cola".

I would have to go with the above statement.Never hear anyone ever say pop or soda out here in the sticks,rarely Coke.
Although when I say it,I say"I Need a Dr.Pepper."

I can't stand to hear someone say I want a pop, soda, drink, ect.
I say what I want, Pepsi, Mr. Pibb, Coors Light, ect. I do not like generic terms for something so specific.
Give me a Pepsi!!

See, it is funny that only a few hundred miles away between GB and Minneapolis, the venacular changes between Pop and Soda
There are a whole bunch of Wisconsin/MInnesota word differences...
which I am trying to think of right now
I know one is Drinking Fountain
