 ''{{w|Night at the Museum}}'' and ''{{w|Cars (film)|Cars}}'' are both children's films from December and June of 2006 respectively, ''{{w|Hips Don't Lie}}'' was an inescapable hit for {{w|Shakira}} released in February 2006, and the {{w|Wii}} is a Nintendo game console which was released in November 2006. If you were born in the early-to-mid nineties, these were probably cultural touchstones of your childhood - most people who enjoyed these are now adults.
-The films ''{{w|Twister (1996 film)|Twister}}'' and ''{{w|Independence Day (1996 film)|Independence Day}}'' are both disaster movies that were huge box office hits from May and July 1996.

''The Rock'' probably refers to the action film ''{{w|The Rock (film)|The Rock}}'' from June 1996, but it could also refer to the wrestler {{w|Dwayne Johnson|The Rock}}, who made his {{w|WWE|WWF/E}} debut in 1996 (he remains a celebrity to this day, although you may know him as Dwayne Johnson).

 This strip is a joke about how common such memes are; Cueball is so eager to note what cultural items have reached major benchmarks of age that he feels the need to break into White Hat's house and announce it mere hours after 2016 begins.
