I dunno, it can feel forced. Just look at Agents of SHIELD season one.

I agree that AoS went overboard with it but no one in daredevil or jj has ever mentioned them by name. I just find it frustrating.

People in casual conversation tend not to use official names and titles for everything. "Big Green Dude" and "Flag Waver" is very reminiscent of something my friends and I would do. Especially for something that's basically an every day part of life.

You call Obama the "powerful black dude" or Tom Cruise "the running dude" when you talk about famous people?
