The parents call "Soda" "Soft Drink!" So other prolly includes Soft Drinks, and I have never heard of it being referred to as tonic on the east coast. Guess I am not hip enough :(

Can't say I've heard "tonic" in the East. All NYers say Soda. I can't imagine anyone going over there saying pop. I honestly (seriously honest) believe no one would understand what you're talking about if you ask for pop at a store.
pop = huh??

Pop is popsicle or maybe a lollipop back home in New England for me.

I see there is a big blue blob over where the quad cities are.(west of chicago, where I live). I don't think I hardly ever hear anyone say soda. Soda pop, yes, but never soda. It's either soda pop, or just pop.

Yeah, I was thinking more of a lollipop in any case, you're right. I don't know.....but I had never heard anyone call lollipops "suckers" until I got here. Anyone care to disprove me on this? Might "sucker" be a regional thing or do you guys have it too?

We call lollipops suckers in California.

Also, there are even differences in vocabulary between Northern and Southern CA - in Northern CA people refer flip-flops as "thongs" (usually older generations...40 year olds and above). In SoCal, it's just flip-flops. If you say you're wearing thongs to the beach in SoCal people will look at you funny.

In Iowa we call the small "suckers"(like dumb dumbs and blow pops) "suckers". The big huge flat things we call "lollipops".

There's a lot of people back home that call flip flops thongs. Same as over there, it's mostly the older generation.
