Pop is our term for soft drinks. It's called "pop" because the cap pops off if you drop a mentos in the bottle and screw the cap on really quickly.

Potato chips were invented by Americans so stop calling them crisps.

You're implying American English isn't bastardized enough to call it American.

Not... Really, it's a pretty true statement. All language came from other languages. It all goes back to grunts and barks.

Or can you name a language that developed independantly from others?

British English incorporates quite a few American English words and sayings, so yeah I probably use them often without recognising them.
