So what do you say when you want a pop/soda? Coke? What do you call a portable am/fm radio or anything musical that is portable (besides the iPod), a walkman? Coke and Walkman are also specific to a particular brand (Coke, duh, and Sony)...

Why does everyone call it nos? NOS is a company that makes Nitrous Oxide Systems. So does Venom. So does Nitrous Express. Why dont people say "he thinks i have NX or something"? **** vin disel and the fast and furious. It is nitrous oxide....NOT NOS!
Matt
Sorry for the rant, but that is one thing that really bothers me, party because i hate the fast and furious so dam much.
EDIT: QiuckShot beat me to it, but still...

People say coke because they want a COKE! If I wanted a sprite i would say sprite. I would say CD player....And I have a problem with people saying NOS too.

That's like calling an iPod a walkman. So you never use 'generic' terms? 
I have a problem with NOS vs Nitrous if they don't mean NOS like Mr Pibb is not Dr Pepper.

I think its funny too. It just irks me (yeah...you liked that) that because vin diesel and paul walker yell on and on about "NOS" and the ******* buttons on the goddam sterring wheels say NOS 1 and NOS 2 everybody and their brother calls nitrous "NOS." Paul walker says "I need NOS" in the movie. Why doesnt he say I need nitrous?
And for the guy about the coke....if I want a coke, I say I want a coke. If I want a Mountain Dew or a Dr. Pepper or ANYTING other than a coke, I dont say "I want a coke."
Maybe I'm just nuts, but this bothers me more than most things (like the 50 new "What gears should i get" threads each day).
