References
- This item is a reference to the Aperture Science Weighted Companion Cube from Portal, one of the games in Valve's The Orange Box. Since the Cube's appearance in a single level of the game, it has become a cultural phenomenon. The disclaimer in the item description is taken verbatim from said level, with "the Enrichment Center" replaced by "Uncle Crimbo and Associates Corporation"; and the terrarium text refers to the player's forced incineration of the Cube at the end of the level.
- The plural form, "boxen," is a reference to a humorous extrapolation of the irregular plural "oxen"; if more than one ox is a group of oxen, more than one fox is a group of foxen, and more than one box is a group of boxen. See wiktionary.
- The mention of "all eight sides" is yet another instance of a running gag about VEGeteriAN having believed the image of the ice-cold six-pack to show 8 beers.
