User blog:KressKross/The President jokes...

Not all the jokes really hit home with me, but those jokes just kinda...didn't make any sense.

I mean, this is incredibly nitpicky, but in order for a joke to make sense, it has to be pertained in the universe of where the joke is taking place. Sure, make references to other things (the Red vs Blue nod was pretty awesome), but those should be subtle at the very most. Ruby quoting three famous political figures in a row doesn't make sense. I mean, unless Nixon, Lincoln, and Luther King Jr. were badass hunters in the past, it really takes me out of it. It causes inconsistencies in the RWBY world and makes you question whether it takes place in its own world or ours.

While on the topic of things that don't pertain to the universe, them saying "oh my god" kinda urks me too. Not for religious reasons, but as I said above, unless God exists in the universe, then why say that?

There. Nitpicking done. This does not ruin the show for me whatsoever, but I just more want to provoke some thought from other people who may or may not feel the same.
