Okay, I admit to being quite blissfully unaware of Tom Cruise in modern culture for years.

Save for South Park.

Can you clue me in on the reference?

As for my comet reference, I recall an article that was titled "Cory, The Comet, and Bandwidth" or similar.

The comet was SL-9 crashing into Jupiter, and the interest choked NASA's servers.

Cory was a college student that posed naked for her boyfriend, and they posted the pictures in a usenet group. The interest, well the guys dreaming of trying to create life with her, because of the pictures, choked her school's internet bandwidth.

Hey, it was the early 1990s...
