Spinoff/ Regional differences

[lurch9]

The cart/buggy, soda/pop questions made me think that we need a separate thread for these questions.

Georgia:
cart= buggy
Coke= coke, I just call it what it is. Sometimes I refer to coke as "that sweet southern nectar"
Tea= Sweet tea
Unsweetened tea= gross brown water
More to come....

Thanks. I almost felt bad about totally hijacking that thread!
This is always a fun topic. Regional and worldwide differences in reference to everyday ordinary things.
LOL unsweetened tea= Gross Brown Water!

I dont know where it is but have you guys ever heard the guys that make COLD BEER into one word:?
"I got me a Coldbeer, and headed over"
