Wow! I could have sworn this was a uniquely Chicagoan phenomenon.
However, I recently relocated to Buffalo and everytime I hear someone say "Pop" I can't help but laughing. Its like saying "Thats real swell!" or "Groovy, man", or calling a bra a "brassiere", or calling a movie the "picture show", or even referring dinner as "supper".
I don't want to sound like I'm making fun of nearly 1/2 the country (according to popvssoda.com) - call it what you like - but if you stop and think about it for a second, you have to admit the term "Pop" definetely sounds like its from another era - that is long gone.
