Re: Just for fun what do you do......

Life-long Philadelphian here.  I TAKE a shower, not have or get, I take.

And if I were to bathe, I'd TAKE a bath.  But I only shower, not bathe.

 

I drink soda.

I am from Ohio too -- lived there for 47 years.  I also take showers and drink pop!

Live in the Northeast, I take a bath, but shower the suds off afterwards. 

 

It's soda and carbonated beverage in my area, but in my house we go by brand names.  I'm going to the store for Pepsi, Sprite, Fresca, and so on.  In the store, I might ask someone "Where's the Pepsi?"

I get a bath... I am from Pittsburgh originally and we always said “red up the room” and we drank Pop.  When I moved to eastern Pa. it took me forever to get used to saying “soda”.    It still sounds odd to me.

Do you have difficulty getting in and out of the tub?

South Carolina girl here...everyone I know "takes" showers. If we don't call coke, ginger ale, sprite, etc. by its name, we call it "soda" or "soft drinks".


 

 

@vermint Ditto to all in NC except some nights in addition to morning shower, before bed, I take a warm, relaxing bath...lavender bath salts, votive candles, jets on high....Ahhhh!


Sounds heavenly! I love lavender scent.

In the Chicago area, soft drinks are called pop, and we take showers or baths.
