        Sadly, the amount of time I lived in Nebraska is now less than the amount of time I have lived in <REDACTED BOILY AS FUCK SW AMERICAN STATE>. This leads me to question if I still qualify as a Midwesterner.

        It's over after this, we in Nebraska are gonna sign the separation papers after you questioned it.

          It's probably better for both of you this way.

            I'm sobbing uncontrollably knowing that I will no longer be allowed into Hy-Vee, Runza, or Big Fred's.

            Good stuff. So good. I miss the last 2 so, so much.

                Is this the wrong time to admit that I lived near Omaha for a decade and only went to Runza once, and I don't even know what Big Fred's is?

                Also I say soda.

                                I do not understand why people get up in arms about pop/soda/Coke. Except that "Coke" is a proper noun and should not be used as a collective noun.

                                Now excuse me, my allergies are making me sneeze my head off. Hand me some kleenex while I google a remedy.

                                Someone who says "pop" sounds like they're going to meet that cute boy/girl from third period at a diner to split a banana sundae in 1956.

                                Calling it "coke" is dumb because I need to clarify if I actually mean a coke or if I mean something else to get the kind of soda I want. That doesn't apply to "Kleenex" because the only people who have ever or will ever give a shit if their tissues are Kleenex-brand are employed at Kleenex's marketing department, and it doesn't apply to googling things because a) it's a verb, no one calls Bing "a google" and b) obviously I am using Google.

                                        @Doozer ...Atlanta? Because I remember getting the 'it's all Coke and don't you dare use that fuckin' P-word in this town' lecture from my Atlanta friends. 😄

                                        Oh fucking well.

                                          I served with a friend who called (presumably calls) all soda 'Coke'. I would reliably bring exactly that when asked. A Coke is a Coke, and while I might entertain some interest in what sort of soda a person would like, I won't voice the question of what non-Coke Coke they might enjoy.

                                          Because standards.
