Something Monty Pythonesque would also fit, and I think examples with different first letters (spam and eggs?) would make the sorting issue more obvious.
I'm open to suggestions, I'm not well versed in Monty Python stuff ! |
Spam and eggs is a popular one: From this sketch: |

Harry Potter's author has publicly expressed opinions that contribute to the unsafety of transgender people.
I have no doubt that this reference was added in good faith, especially considering that it was contributed 17 years ago, shortly after Twitter's inception (and presumably before JK Rowling signed up), but I think that keeping it around now would send off the wrong message to trans folks that this community doesn't care about them.
I stumbled upon this particular instance simply by reading docs, but I didn't find more.
Luke and Leia seemed like a good replacement here as another mix-gendered pair of main characters from an extremely popular franchise with names that start with the same letter.
