Quite possible.

I thought as much.

If you pronounce it "Ess Oh Pee", then yes, use "an."

That is how I pronounce it. ESS oh Pee. S however is a consonant.
How do you pronounce it?

Is it a SOP or an SOP? It sounds strange as just "a"

Yes, but it has the E sound at the very beginning, no?

Yes, but I wasn't pronouncing it that way in my head. I'm probably wrong in that respect.

So I'm supposed to be saying it as sop? As in I sop up the mess...or what's sop?

That's how I say it, but we all know how often I'm wrong...
