How Unscientific: Difference between revisions

This usually falls outside the main characters' [[Genre Blindness]], allowing them to see and [[Lampshade|comment]] on how manifestly [[This Is Reality|weird]] it is. It is not, however, based on [[The Parody|parodying]] of the intrusive element (though some [[Satire, Parody, Pastiche|satire]] may be involved).

[[Science Fiction]] and [[Fantasy]] also cross each other often, as they're opposite sides of the same [[Speculative Fiction]] coin--not to mention equivalent, per [[Clarke's Third Law|Arthur C. Clarke's third law]]. If that's the case, expect to hear the intruding elements described in terms that match the original genre (after all, to a starship captain there's [[No Such Thing as Space Jesus]], only [[Sufficiently Advanced Aliens]]). If the two sides can't play nice and one view takes over, that's either [[Doing in the Wizard]] or [[Doing in the Scientist]]; if they can live together harmoniously, it's [[Science Fantasy]].
