That's a pretty elaborate interpretation. How about
Southerner: "I'll have a coke"
"Waitress: "We serve Pepsi, is that okay?"
Southerner" "
up"
Problem solved.
When I was younger, I used "Coke" (the term, not the drug...stay with me here), probably because my mom lived in the South for many years. I've never used "Pop" and rarely used "Soda". I usually use "Soft Drink" or the brand name these days.

How the hell would you order in a restaurant, especially in any place that wasn't the south?
Scenario 1:
Waitress: What will you have to drink?
Southerner: I'll have a coke.
*waitress brings a coke and southerner takes a sip*
Southerner: WTF IS THIS! I ordered a coke and you brought me a Coke! You should have known I meant I wanted a coke!
Scenario 2:
Waitress: What will you have to drink?
Southerner: I'll have a coke.
Waitress: I'm sorry, we only serve Pepsi products.
Southerner: Ok, I'll have a coke.
Waitress: Sir, we only serve Pepsi.
Southerner: I know, I heard you the first time, I'll have a coke.
*waitress shoots southerner in the face and serves 20 years for what should have been justifiable homicide*

Boy howdy beaver cleaver, I could sure use a pop!
Seriously that word makes you sound like you're from the '50s. The idea of calling sprite, dr. pepper, or other soft drink 'coke' is even more bizarre.

Actually, in reality it goes like this:
Patron: I'll have a coke.
Server: OK, what kind?
Patron: Do you have 7-up?
Server: We only have Pepsi products, how about a Sprite?
Patron: sounds good.
