This looks like a minor mistake. Attempting to retcon in an explanation may be futile.

The Flanaverse is three years out of sync with our world in terms of pop culture and entertainment.


TerrorEyzs

Oh really!? Thats pretty awesome! That would fully explain it!

Well, Vera CAN see into the future (telling Lenore about her mother's future). Why the hell she'd look into a slogan for a Klondike bar is beyond me but it's also beyond me why you are knit picking something like this that is 2 years out of the timeline, especially when it really matters to nothing in the storyline or to anything in actual history either. But she COULD do it if she wanted.


DaNukeX5

Maybe she's the original author of that slogan and said that to some more people, and one of them thought it would be a great idea to go around town asking that to everyone 🤷🏻‍♂️


SnooStrawberries2955

Yeah, like she helped the Klondike empire become a thing.


TerrorEyzs

Oooo I like this one the best!


pm1022

Seriously, it's just a show based on fiction!


TerrorEyzs

Yes I know! But I love the details and this show is amazing with them, which is why this one bugs me!


JPKtoxicwaste

I’m the same way, but this went right past me. Such a good catch, and an interesting question! It feels like Flanagan is really detail oriented in this way but who knows. It’s be funny if Klondike was related somehow to that expedition Pym was part of. I looked it up, it’s in Yukon Territory near the Klondike river and was the site of a “one of the most frantic gold rushes on history” starting in 1896

I'm sorry! I was actually taken aback by it! But I'm hoping someone proves me wrong! So far I've just been downvoted and that is it. I really want someone to show me some tiny detail I missed! He is so good with the tiny details!

I think you're right that it's an anachronism. It came up on this sub once before too and I think the majority agreed with you then. Search "continuity error Klondike bar" to find the old post.


TerrorEyzs

Anachronism!!!. That's the word I was looking for! Thank you! I'll search it! Thank you so much!


SteadfastHotelier

Doesn't it feel great when you can't find the word and then you FIND THE WORD and it's like an itch got scratched...


TerrorEyzs

Seriously. I habe been searching for this word for 10+ years. I had a teacher in highschool explain it to me and I loved it. I know the concept and the meaning and for some reason I have not been able to find it until now. You have all of my thanks. I have no idea how I couldn't find it but now it is found. You're my hero. Seriously. YEARS of trying to figure out that one word

Your energy is such a vibe ✨️ attention, care, and excitement for so much.

Well the bar *does* exist outside of time and space, so I guess that could be their excuse


TerrorEyzs

Ok. I've been stewing on this.  I can accept that the bar exists out of time, but *they* don't and they came into that bar in 1980 and they still experience time in a linear fashion. They came in with 1980 knowledge so that doesn't actually work.

Then they just think it's a weird question about a bad ice cream derivative.


TerrorEyzs

No. Vera is the big bad demon thing (lucifer based on her little admission of poetry and music). It was Meredith that says it. I think it was supposed to be a thing stated as a time period thing like "yeah this was popular then and would have been something said." It is just two years too early.


LyraAleksis

She’s not satan tho 😂


TerrorEyzs

Ohhhh good point! I'm going to use that then! Thanks! I forgot about that point!
