Been hanging on West street?

Don't you mean W4th street? Alas...the last place I gazed into Trailboss' eyes on his trip to NYC...West 4th and Carmine... A crazy panhandler dancing in TB's face. Priceless!

Hey, I'm just slightly aware of the area, not intimately familiar with it That sounds like it was a priceless scene, still waiting for a TR from TB.

I am guessing other is for terms like "tonic" which sounds too "I use big words" for me.

One of my favorite sections of the city...although I prefer the East Village over the West. I've given up on TB's TR at this point.

I may head into the West Village for the parade on the 31st. It's always a good time...If not I can always watch it on NY1.

unless "Gin" is used in the same sentence. ...but as I've said before, I'm extremely allergic to Gin. Every time I drink it I break out in handcuffs. :evil:

When i was living in Co and asked for a soda they would look at me and say your not from here are you..

The only thing on there that makes sense in the whole southeast is Coke afterall their headquarters is in Atlanta, Ga.

I don't know.... using it as a generic though? Do you ask for a Coke when you really want a Sprite? How do you tell the difference?




I'll have your best syrup mixed with your finest carbonated water and carbonic acid.

Thanks.

When I moved from Minnesota to New York I called soda pop for awhile but soon realized that nobody knows what I am talking about. Shoes are another one...in the midwest we call sneakers tennis shoes.

ahem...I know you lived in NYC, Doug...please don't forget your roots, it's called a hero.

Right... Hero... I think there's another one I can't think of...

I've always called it a sub.. I think it's from when I was a kid growing up in Freehold NJ for a few years... There were "sub shops" all over the place...

I believe that "wedge" is the name you're looking for.

Where I grew up, any brown soda was a coke, any clear soda was a sprite, and any fruit-flavored soda was a nehi.
Except RC. If you wanted an RC Cola, you asked for an RC. And a Moonpie. That's good eating.

We had a thread like this a year or two back. One thing I learned is that none of you call your driveway a "dooryard" like I do. Maybe (TB/Riv) that is a NEK thing? Soda and Sub to go please.
