16. That site's not much good as a reference.

Seriously, have you seen some of the responses for "other"? One of them was "Tubgirl Juice" (trust me when I say you REALLY don't want to know what "Tubgirl" refers to).

17. NYC says "soda"

Unless it ain't got no syrup in it...then it's a "two-cents plain" (boy! am I dating myself with THAT one!)

If it's got chocolate syrup in it and milk...then it's an Egg Cream! Woo-hoo! (yeah, you can have vanilla ones, too.)
