One of my aunts started going grey in high school and another aunt did in her 20s but my mom is still mostly dark haired at 68.

I have zero white or gray hair. Seriously. It's starting to freak me out slightly. Like, is there a wig in the attic going silver?

You and me both. Of course, it could just be that you can't really tell.

That was my guess, but my stylist, who actually gets a close look at it, says there really is none. I'm assuming I'll be one of those people whose hair goes white overnight. White would be cool, as would silver. My dad is silver/white, so I'm hoping for that.

It has Will County, where I grew up, picking "pop" over "soda" by a 532 to 39 count. That sounds about right! Although I did switch over to using "soda" while spending four years in Milwaukee for college, and never switched back.

I never did pick up "bubbler" for a water fountain, though.

We said pop or Coke growing up, but as I got older, I snootified and say soda.

And pretty much the only soda I drink, rarely, is Coke. (I was really excited when I found a bodega that stocks Mexican Coke! Er, the soda kind, natch.)

What could "other" be? Sodapop?

The 7-11 near me sells the Mexican Coca-Cola (they keep those bottles next to the sandwiches, separate from the soda cooler on the wall), but I've never tried it.

Tonic (parts of New England, although not heard as often as it used to be)

Dope (similarly old-school, Southern)

We say soda here, for sure, but my father calls it tonic, which I've never heard anyone else use ever.

Yeah, they still say tonic in some more remote parts of New England, although I grew up saying soda in SE Massachusetts.

I'm in SE Massachusetts too, and my dad grew up here as well. So maybe tonic was more prevalent in the 50s and 60s when he was growing up? I'm sure lots of other people used it, but we used to tease our dad so badly about it.
