It's the brand name. When you need authentic pottery built to last, look for CHON on the cylinder. Customer: *checks cylinder*, hey, this isn't CHON, it's C𓅓ON!

I'm not sure how to read this correctly, was the kindergarten comment a one-sentence aside, or do you mean you remember kindergarten as a demented hellscape?

Look at lucky Mr haccount here, with his fancy brand-name produce. You call that dystopian? Here we just slurp our 10% white vinegar straight out of the acetate reactor for 300 kcal per liter.
