A wise man once said "sometimes you have to let those hard to reach chips go!"

Interesting bit of trivia for you: Pringles cannot be called chips in the United States. A chip has a specific definition Pringles don’t meet since they are essentially reformed from dust and binding.

I think Pringles original intention was to make tennis balls. But on the day that the rubber was supposed to show up, a truckload of potatoes arrived.

I miss him. I'd have loved to hear his take on gestures broadly all of this.

Pringle is a real laidback company.

And Pringles is a laid back company, man. They said “fuck it; let’s cut ‘em up!”

u/Strong_Secretary6290 Jul 25 '26

Does that mean curly fries aren’t?

u/LostN3ko Jul 25 '26

But Pringles is a laid back kinda company, so they said fuck it! Cut em up!

u/Weird_Respond5711 Jul 25 '26

Idk about that, but I do know that if you ever find yourself in a position where you need to start a fire, you can use Pringles. Takes a second to get it to light, but once it's lit, it burns like plastic. Kind of melts over everything, igniting everything it touches.

u/VashDaStampede7 Jul 25 '26

lol I didn’t get that for a second 💀 good joke!

u/1swarmofbee Jul 25 '26

Thank the late great Mitch Hedberg for that one. Along with an escalator being temporarily stairs (sorry for the convenience), rice being great when you're hungry for two thousand of something, and the insight that no matter how good you get at tennis, you can never be as good as the wall

u/Reasonable_Cut_9593 Jul 25 '26

That's a good one but wouldn't you have like to be the one at the board room table that come up with the rigid container idea?

u/Mean_Replacement5544 Jul 25 '26

ok Mitch Hedburg - at least give credit to the guy who wrote the joke

1

u/1swarmofbee Jul 25 '26

I believe, much like the clerks thread in this post, that citing the reference was unnecessary, as those who would get the joke, already had. And any of those that didn't, well luckily now they have your post to spell it out for them

u/cosmicanchovies Jul 25 '26

Now, Pringles is a laid back company. They said, f*** it, cut 'em up!
