- The title could be a reference to the song "My Foolish Heart", in particular the line "beware my foolish heart".
- The title could also be a pun on "Be Still My Beating Heart", which is the title of a song by Sting and a centuries-old catchphrase denoting breathless excitement, particularly in a romantic context.
- The title screen gag and chalkboard gag are references to Matt Groening's having revealed in an interview that the Simpsons' Springfield was named for Springfield, Oregon.
