Wanted soda, so I said,
"Do you want Coca-Cola?"
and they said, "What's that?!"
And I said, "Uh, Coke?"
And they said yeah!
Geesh! It's not like I'm Grandma, I'm in my 30s!

Try living in the south and calling it a pop. "Ya want a pop?" My friends have wondered if I was going to hit them!

Perhaps your nephews are misunderstanding what Coca-Cola was, and what it is now. Back in the time when Coca-Cola was created, they used cocaine in the drink, to cause a desire for it, but now it's simply caffine. If I understand your question right, perhaps they think it is okay for them to have cocaine? I am not sure if your nephews understand when you said, Coke, that they knew what you meant. I hope to heck they did!

Don't go to Mexico and ask for a soda because they think your asking for something else.
