Line 50:
* [[Continuity Lock Out]]: The comic attempted to address this by having the homepage display a summary of the plot and character descriptions for the key players; this only appeared for a few weeks. It's still more appropriately read with an [[Archive Binge]]. The current archive page encourages the latter, while also pointing out some key arcs to give new fans some background if they're too impatient.
* [[Contrived Coincidence]]: Penny knows the ''exact place and time'' to drive by and find Aggie crying in a heap and having suicidal thoughts because of an argument she started with Marshall over Karen. Penny even knows the exact contents of a telephone conversation Aggie ''just had'' with Karen, in which Aggie said nothing. A few pages later, Penny explained that Sara told her where to find Aggie, but that doesn't explain the precision - or why nobody ever noticed Penny driving around the block and stalking Aggie by car. The car does not appear until the moment of the phone conversation.
* [[Crossover]]: Helen crosses over into the ''[[Something*Positive]]'' 'verse [httphttps://wwwweb.archive.org/web/20140109071808/http://somethingpositive.net/sp02232010.shtml here]. She narrowly avoids the [[Look Both Ways|standard Milholland crossover greeting]], and it all goes downhill from there. Some fans understandably viewed this as Helen being [[Put on a Bus]], but the writer of [[Something*Positive]] [http://www.somethingpositive.net/sp08092010.shtml later stated] that Helen was a [[Penny and Aggie]] character and wouldn't be permanently joining his cast, so it looks like it's just a really long [[Crossover]] after all.
* [[Dan Browned]]: Fans with experience with Islam and Scientology have pointed out some ''major'' errors in T's depiction of them. T's response was that he only showed two individuals; he felt he'd portrayed the Scientologist as clearly insane, while the Muslim student is still closeted and only a recent convert trying to learn the religion on his own time.
* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: Penny, while she certainly likes male attention, has trouble early on with actual intimacy.By the end of the comic, {{spoiler|she turns a shouting match with Aggie into violently passionate rage sex that demolishes a room and most of the girls' clothes. It's safe to say she's well past this trope now.}}
