Gosh, I haven't read that "Lord of the Flies" in a very long time. In fact, I think it's one of those books that I only pretended to read in school (pirating just enough info to write my term paper and get my gentleman's B).
I do, however, remember watching a bad film adaption (not the recent one in the theaters), and in it the Piggy character repeatedly used a puffer to relieve his asthma.
This is relevant, because in today's real-life adaption of my, er, real life, the Alane character uses a puffer to relieve her sleep apnea.
Coincidence? I think not.
As for the other traits shared by the box's contents... I surrender. Some of it is crap from Odd Job; the rest of it is crap that should be sold at Odd Job.
Hmmm. Maybe that's the unifying theory. What am I missing?
