I had graduated college before I ever met somebody who called soda "pop". I remember before that somebody telling me that some people called it "pop," and I was sure they were wrong. My mistake was thinking that just because I hadn't experienced something, that meant that it didn't happen.

I think mid-twenties was probably too old for me to have made such an elementary mistake.

I grew up in the PNW and we called it "pop," and I always thought it was weird that anyone would call it "soda". Now I live in a "soda" area and have adapted.

I don't think there's a lesson here, just a relevant anecdote.
