* In ''[[Taz-Mania]]'', Molly's favourite band is The New Chips of the Block; Donnie, Ronnie, Lonnie, [[Bonnie and Clyde]].
* One episode of the 2010 ''[[Pound Puppies]]'' series features five puppy siblings: Flip, Blip, Tip, Whip, and Chubbers.

* Played with in the old joke: "My mother had four children. The first was named Spring, the second, Summer, and the third, Autumn. What was the name of her last child?" {{spoiler|The answer, of course, is the first name of the person asking the question, which is probably ''not'' "Winter".}}
** Another version of the joke goes: "Sarah's mother has four children. Three are named April, May and June. What is the fourth child named?" {{spoiler|Sarah.}} The original name can be anything.
** Yet another one: "Tom's mom had three children. If one was Monica and another was Veronica, what was the third?"
** Also: A woman had four children: Eeney, Meeney, Miney... and Steve. Why? {{spoiler|She didn't want no mo'}}.
* There's also the joke:
{{quote|So apparently one out of five people in the world are Chinese. MY family has five people in it, so I guess one of them must be Chinese. Could be my mom. Or my dad. Or my brother Jack. Or my little brother Heilong. {{spoiler|I'm pretty sure it's Jack.}}}}
 
 
Line 326 ⟶ 335:

* The University of California at San Diego is split into six colleges (which basically entails different general education requirements, generally with some vague theme to each college's curriculum): [[Named After Somebody Famous|Revelle, Muir, Warren, Marshall, Eleanor Roosevelt]], and...[[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Sixth]]. This is just a placeholder until they ''do'' decide on a name, but it's already been ten years...
