Nah, you apply it to any super cool icon you want. For example - The last man who made eye contact with Mr. T was Ray Charles, Every time a church bell rings, Mr. T pities a fool, Mr. T invented fools. Realizing the magnitude of his folly, he then created Pity, There are only four horsemen of the apocalypse, because Mr. T is going to walk, etc.
