Due to the wording of its definition, {{tp|pu}} is sometimes extended to unintuitive interactions. For a practical example, a surface upon which a copy of ''Toki Pona: The Language of Good'' is resting would be {{tp|supa pu}}, even though it is not engaging with the text content of the book. A similar common joke is that the book should not be called {{tp|pu}} in general, but a stack of copies is {{tp|pu}}, since each copy is "interacting" with another.
