According to Uncle John himself, “More and more people are finding that more and more people on their holiday gift lists have used the bathroom in the recent past and are planning on doing so again during the holiday season and even throughout the New Year. If you are looking for a present that is flush with extra strength, two-ply “info” tainment, the latest titles, look no further as this year we rolled out, Uncle John’s Triumphant 20th Anniversary Bathroom Reader, Uncle John’s Under the Slimy Sea Bathroom Reader For Kids Only, and Uncle John’s Presents The Ultimate Challenge Trivia Quiz, which offer the perfect solutions to the pungently perplexing annual holiday shopping dilemma.”
