Talking ducks


a term to indicate someone’s questioning of the validity of one aspect in a fictional story is in fact overshadowed by the absurdity of the story’s basic premise.

a phrase first coined when one person loudly wondered how the ducks in a donald duck story managed to breathe under water without any visible breathing apparatus on their diving suit, and another replied “you know you’re reading a story about talking ducks, right?”
seb: “so how did they hide a physical object in a mirror’s reflection in the first harry potter?”

gordon: “dude. talking ducks.”
