Nobody likes to be ill, except maybe masochists. And since you’re already feeling bad, why would you want to be constantly reminded of it?

A Talking Tissue Box doesn’t seem like a brilliant idea in any circumstances, but a box that sneezes when you take out a tissue is just daft. It features five sneezing or coughing sounds and it’s supposed to make you laugh. Yes, I would probably laugh, the first three times. Then I would cackle maniacally while I smashed against the desk. I can hear my own sneezing, I don’t want to hear the damn tissue box do it too.

Really, there are much better things you can do with $20. Like stocking up on tissues and cough medicine, not buying annoying boxes.

Toilet novelty items and gadgets have found their niche on the market and are going strong. What makes people buy funny stuff for their bathroom, since it’s not exactly what you’d show someone while giving them a house tour? Beats me. Nonetheless, here’s another one for whoever’s interested.

The Tube Tissue Dispensers can diguise your toilet paper roll inside a fake superglue or toothpaste tube for some obscure reason I don’t get. After all, you couldn’t prank anyone with them, since a paper roll is too large to be confused with a real tube of paste or glue.

Thankfully, the second suggested use is more practical: plain tissue dispenser. You just unvelcro the tail of the tube, insert a paper roll and poke the end through the cap, and you get a dispenser that will probably make a couple of people scratch their heads until they figure it out.

Not the most exciting idea and, frankly, too expensive for what it does (i.e. sit there and look like a fat tube of toothpaste). Good for a gag gift and that’s about it, unfortunately. And you can find better silly gifts for much less.
