I don't understand why a person would drink canned or instant or premade or whatever you want to call it tea.
Because it tastes better.  Sorry! :P

Are the rumors true that if you're in the north and ask for a glass of tea they bring you unsweetened? Or if you ask for a glass of sweet tea (if they know what you're talking about) bring you a glass of unsweetended tea, a spoon, and sugar packets?
If you're here and you ask for tea, you'll generally get a glass (or tea-pot) of near-boiling water, a tea bag, sugar, and cream, and from there you build your tea yourself.  Sometimes the restaurants put the tea-bag in the near-boiling water for you. 

I thought it was really weird when we went to Florida and my stepmom asked for tea and they said, "hot or cold?" --- that's a concept that we don't have up here.  It's either 'tea' or 'ice tea'.

Who orders hot tea? That is pretty whack.

Almost everybody here drinks hot tea.  Like I said, that's the default mode, and a very common one.

I love hot tea!  It's good :D

Where I am from in Missouri, they just ask you if you want Sweetened or Unsweetened tea. 
The once grove of splendor,
Aforetime crowned by lilac and lily,
Lay now forevermore slender;
And all winds that liven
Silhouette a lone existence;
A leafless oak grasping at eternity.

When you ask for iced tea you're brought a glass of iced tea with a wedge of lemon.  If the place is any kind of not-sucky, there will be a thingy of sugar, sweet & low, and [the pink ones] packets on the table.

It still sucks because sugar doesn't disolve properly in cold stuff, that's why the sugar is added after brewing. I usually use the sugar on the table to sweeten my sweet tea though because most restraunts can't get it right (like Dennys!)

Who drinks soda or pop, we all drink Coke

I drink Soda.
Mug != Coke
A&W != Coke
Barq's != Coke
Sprite != Coke
Sunkist != Coke
Coke == Coke
Pepsi == Coke
Everything else sucks.

Pepsi and Coke have distinguishable differences in taste.  I think I'd be able to tell the two appart if given a series of cups. :P

we did that in my psych class. 
tested pepsi, coke, and sam's cola.....

Pepsi & Sam's is the closest, sam's drinks the best

It doesn't matter.  No place (talking restaraunts and the such) sell Coke AND Pepsi, so if you order one of them you get what they have.
