It's not as good as the stuff you get in a store, but if you have some spare hot lying around and you buy regular chip, you can make hot chip at home.

If you have some hot pockets lying around you can actually carefully open them up to get the hot out. It's just as good as the pure stuff but like half the price for whatever reason. You can still eat the pockets too if you want.

If you soak red hots in water overnight, bring that water to a boil, and then allow it to cool, you not only end up with some really excellent hot floating at the top, you also have a good amount of perfectly drinkable home-made red.

e: You can also technically get red from hot pockets with red sauce, but it's kinda difficult to separate the red from the sauce.

You know how Wavy Lay's are like WAAAAAY greasier than most other chips?

If you sprinkle Tony Chachere's on them shits it sticks like glue and becomes the best potato chips you've ever eaten.

Put whatever you want in them, I'm just trying to save leftists some money on their hot chip. But I think if you have a premium source of cold just lying around your house you can probably afford the fancy store bought hot anyway.

Mikesells potato chips are superior and if you are in the midwest for some reason you need to get them. Mostly a Cincinnati/Dayton area chip.

Perfect balance of salt and oil. Not too salty, not too greasy, not too crispy, but not too flimsy: just right.

Hot pockets are a lie because they actually just sell you a pocket and you have to add the hot yourself

You can really tell a lot about a person by the way they react to the suggestion of eating a regular pocket.

I'm not as much of a chip eater as I used to be, but, I'm a simple man who enjoys Munchos.
They're basically pure salt, but, I like them sometimes when I do want chips of any temperature.

One of the features of Toki pona is that due to the heavily compressed conceptual space, blue and green are described using the same word and symbol (laso, the plant looking hieroglyphic) because they are right next to each other on the colour wheel. This is less silly than is sounds and there is precedent of this in other natural languages

So it's getting across

Bad - using laso to describe blue and PLANT-LASO to describe green

Good - using laso to describe green and HEAVENLY-LASO for blue

It's an opinion piece on the use of the language. To stretch the meaning of interpretation and give a bit more clarity with sentence structure

"Using laso to mean blue and defining green by referring to plants is inferior. Superior is to assume a more green tone for laso and specify the sky when you mean blue"

Thank you for listening to my TED talk

I’d say that the language doesn’t differentiate between blue and green, it has one word (laso) for both which makes blue/green a single referent. Some language users are arguing about communicating a conceptual difference by combining laso with sewi or kasi.
