Ha ha. I'm slightly guilty of this - but I will not tell you why! :p
The word: “Nerdgassing”
Definition: The venting nerds emit when some (often minor) detail of a book/movie/TV show/comic book/etc either conflicts with canon and/or handwaves through some some suspect science.
Example One: “In the third show of the second season of Star Trek: The Next Generation, Data clearly says that the Glorithian flagship was constructed in orbit around that planet Norgar, but then in the fifteenth show of the sixth season, it’s said it was constructed in the Buterian space docks! How do you explain that, hmmm?”*

I am way more than SLIGHTLY guilty of this...
The Simpsons writers revel in nerdgassing. And I thank them for it.
But in part you know you've really made it if some random geek is keeping tabs THAT Closely on your series. :D
