Tennies
I called it PE or gym, but in elementary school my kids called it Health Fitness (every day my oldest would come home so sweaty and I asked him if he had PE last period and he had no clue what I was talking about! LOL) In middle school and high school it becomes gym.
Soft drink or coke regardless of what it is, even ice tea! LOL
pasta sauce or spaghetti sauce
Po'boys for years, now due to advertising a sub.

Lol,Annie,I knew you were gonna say coke. Here is the running conversation that used to go on here. My hubby is from Chicago.
"What is this."
"Coke,you said get coke."
" You know I don't drink Coke,I drink Sprite."
"You said get Coke."
"When have I ever drank Coke? I drink Sprite."
"You said get Coke. This is Coke, Sprite is not Coke."
"You know what I meant."
Finally, we have agreed on soda.

ROFL!!!!!!!!! Hip! At college, there were a ton of people from the Chicago area and that's where I first came across this. We would say 'hey, wanna go grab a coke' and they would either decline cause they didn't like coke or be mistified when I would order a tea!

so far no red gravy people.......

my dh says he has heard of red sauce though.
And here (Chicago) asking for a coke is about the same as asking for a pop...

Example:

Question: Anyone want a coke?

Answer: I'll have a diet sprite.

My Italian friends back in Philadelphia call pasta sauce "gravy." That always confused me. And I never knew whether gravy had meat in it or not. And what do they call the stuff you put on mashed potatoes?

Oh ZM, we must be on different planets then!!!! :-)

Tex, were they from Chicago or the suburbs? Maybe that makes a difference???

Hmmm, upon further review, it appears that I must be on a different planet than most everyone else!! (Not a big surprise at all!!!!)

Julie, burbs...hmmmmmmm
Tish, That red gravy over pasta throws me everytime too. It seems to be a New Orleans/southern LA thing also. I guess over taters it's white or brown gravy. (we do that too)
