When I was in school, we played "soccer hockey". It was basically hockey, but in the grass and with a ball instead of a puck. You would shoot the ball with a stick just like in hockey, into a literal hockey net. It was much easier than hockey for some fairly obvious reasons.

Kickball was our name for Soccer, and Soccer was a mysterious thing that kids in wealthier homes did at the park which we didn't really understand, but they sold us chocolate bars to help pay for it.

I use soda instead of pop online because there is less need to explain what you mean. I found that when I say pop online, people question it.

I call traffic cones "pine cones" because I confuse the terms "pylon" and "traffic cone". And speaking of pylons, the large lattice structures that hold of high voltage lines are "hydro towers".
