have no idea what the hell I'm talking about when I ask what kind of pop they have.
Yeah, and when you ask for a pop. I'll ask, Where do you want it?
Soda is far more common now, though "tonic" does seem to have remained in some locales due to parental influences. Coke and other brand names are also very common.
As for the other issue. It is definitely a Sub, though the packaging at many "sub" shops usually has all the slang sprawled all over the bag. i.e. hoagie, hero, grinder, submarine, ...
I have never heard of a "tag" sale though. It was always a Yard Sale in my area.
People in the West call it pop. People in the East call it soda.
Interesting theory, but wrong. I've lived on the West Coast my entire life, and hardly anyone I've met (from around here) says "pop". Soda/Pop seems to be an Urban/Rural thing, more than east-west.
