This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Coke is not synonymous with either pop or soda...

It is in the south, at least where i was

How do you order an actual coke in the south?

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 week ago

"Ill have a coke" "What kind?" "Regular" or whatever you want, "pepsi", "diet", "dr pepper" etc

The real question is "how do they order other sodas". The answer is extra steps.

I'd imagine you just say the name of the other soda. I don't say "I'd like a Dr. Pepper soda" after all.

Although you might say an orange pop 😉

"When I first come to America I wanted a cola and I say 'cola?' and they would be like 'excuse me?' and I say 'cola. Cola. Cola!' but it wasn't cola; it was cock. Right? You would say 'i want cock.'"
