Calling all facial tissues "Kleenex" is one thing. I might even understand "Coke" as a generic term for colas - but calling something like Sprite or Dr. Puker "Coke" is a bit of cognitive dissonance that makes my brain grind its gears.
I mean, imagine calling paper for your laser printer "Kleenex" - after all, it's all paper, right?
