HSP is love, HSP is life xoxoGoogle informed me that HSP is a disease of the skin (Henoch–Schönlein purpura) involving inflammation of small blood vessels, before adding that it could also refer to a disease causing spasticity and muscle weakness in the legs (hereditary spastic paraplegia), which both seemed odd things to love. Then it dawned on me that you must be yet another victim to that strangely viral obsession with halal snack packs.
