Why do you insist on putting those quotation marks around statements before the punch or rhyming words?

For example: 'I'll grab the hammer' like THOR IN AVENGERS.

Do you think your readers are incapable of understanding that Thors weapon was a hammer, and a hammer in another sense is referred to a gun?
It's common sense, and an to me seems pointless.

And on some I've looked over the words in quotation have nothing to do with the punch.

So why? Even when I did battle here I always wondered that.

Idk maybe I'm just being a dick.
People feel the need to make their verses look as complex as possible to get more votes based on intricacy. It doesn't make much sense to put quotation marks around things so obvious, but if someone was daft enough to miss that simply wordplay it would have been as if it wasn't there in the first place, so I'm sure most do it just so it's blatantly put out there, not because they're like "OHHH THAT SHIT WAS FIRE MANEEEE BETTA QUOTE THAT BITCH!"
