- Aluminum Christmas Trees: Arthur's Uncle Sean tries, and fails, to act out the book On The Bridges of Medieval Paris: A Record of Early Fourteenth-Century Life by Virginia Wylie Eggbert. While this seems like a joke about Pop-Cultural Osmosis Failure, this is actually a real book. Lampshaded when his wife chides him for not picking a more well-known work, to which he replies "Well, all my friends have read it!"
