It is absolutely delightful when pals and more are able to spot references in works and realize that there's more than meets the eye. But some of us, freaks, are over here, going out of our minds, yet trying to keep it cool, because... No. Actually. It didn't make 3 references, Katie. It is making 10 to 20+. AND ON TOP OF THAT, you gotta consider the socio-political, cultural, and historic context that all led up to it. And AHHH! I'm fine. This is fine. We're fine.
Just breathe and calm down. You can list it all out later.
