Easter Eggs & Fun Details

So, there are a lot of threads like this out there, but they're all either dead or centred on specific packs (if I'm wrong, please do post a link to a live thread). So, here's your new place to talk about any random details, Easter Eggs or references you find in game.

I'll start. So I was re-watching some old Strangerville LP someone did (I don't actually own the pack), when I noticed that the bar was called the Eight Bells. This is - I think, I seem to be the only person to have noticed this - a reference to the Ten Bells, a pub in Shoreditch, London, which was the centre of the Jack the Ripper cases. What little details have you noticed, in your own gameplay or others'?
  • I’m sure many players know already about this. But I love how some of the books reference books from the real world. Some of the book references include Love in the Time of Cholera, Game of Thrones/ASOIAF, Harry Potter (or maybe Percy Jackson, but I think it HP), and The Hunger Games.

    There is one I recently discovered, but I don't recall it now.
    Anyway, the Wolf Pytts camping objects from Outdoor Retreat are a reference to Bear Grylls (if I'm spelling it correctly, it's been a while since I watched Discovery).
    And (sorry for the SW thing, I know it's a sensitive subject today) the baby Yoda statue costs 504 simoleons, a reference to May the 4th.
    There's a brick wallpaper that was added to the basegame last year or the year before, it's called "Steve & Graham's habitat bricks", which I'm pretty sure has to do with the respective SimGurus (unless there's another Steve and Graham in popular culture that I'm unaware of, which isn't at all unthinkable).
  • So many people eye roll it, but there will never be a day that I don’t laugh at take an angry poop. I am an immature human being and I have zero regrets.
