Is it too unsafe to assume that because the standard, typically drawn stick figure is referred to as Rob, that the character in most of these strips is named Rob and not Cueball? As I understand it, Cueball was made up on this site and not by Randall. --[[Special:Contributions/98.203.241.55|98.203.241.55]] 22:12, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

I think this is a truth in fiction so to speak. In many story lines there's moments where, "You remember that time we broke all those spiritual laws? Well it appears that [G]od(s) is angry." A secular example, anyone thinking to themselves, "Seriously officer, I only had three or four drinks, and I had to get home." "Well, now you are DUI." *gasp* "Really?!??! Oh no!"

Another interesting thing here is that Cueball instantly understands the association between curses and desecrating Indian burial grounds despite being stupid enough not to know A. you shouldn't mess with burial places and whatnot in the first place, and B. that the site of buried Indians is, by definition, and Indian burial ground.

I actually heard Rob's voice as the narmy "Oh my God!!!!" quote from Trolls 2.[[Special:Contributions/108.162.219.144|108.162.219.144]] 18:30, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
 
 
I feel like it's not clearly enough explained here that the joke is that a place where Indian bones are buried is by definition an Indian burial ground (as is mentioned above in the discussion) [[Special:Contributions/162.158.154.115|162.158.154.115]] 15:01, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
