Waiting until the last minute to pack for trips is the best you guys.

From bjornwilde:

What structural aspect of your pup's canon is less than ideal? Is it redundant descriptions? A poorly fleshed out character? No clear rules for magic? Not enough history? A flimsy culture?

Warehouse 13 Frakking timelines, man. THEY DO NOT WORK. So, they tried to retcon Claudia's age, without retconning anything at all about Joshua or his accident. Also, in Reset, Christina's grave says she died in '99. And then in 3 2 1, Helena says in '93, she'd been dead for a couple years. ... whut? (And that's not even including my issues with Helena's stages of grief with the 321 timeline.) Also also, if you go by the retconned Claudia timeline, four seasons of the show have happened in two years... when there have actually been bits of three Christmasses mentioned. (Claudia actually appeared around Christmas, in my theory of canon. Merry Christmas, Warehouse!)

And if your entire plot revolves around the entire cast holding the idiot ball there's something wrong. This is me eying you, Evil Giles.

Ender's Game Card has said in the introduction to one of his books that he can't timeline or age up characters. Yeah. There are some fairly blatent structural inconsistancies surrounding Valentine and her age. Argh.

Rent and Les Mis are musicals. They're hampered by the fact that you can only get so much backstory into a two-to-three hour musical. However, I don't really have many complaints about either of them. I've pulled shit out of throw-away lines in Rent for ages.
