It doesn't come off as appropriate to the tone. It's not just that one character does it, it's that a lot of characters do it. And if they did compare it, that would be AFTER the tragedy. A time for characters to recoup. I wouldn't want someone from Walking Dead to say "So randems, yo!" when they saw a hurd of zombies. They don't even say crazy s**t, they just say a pop culture reference or slang that will be outdated. The book is almost as pandering as #LoveHacks.
