Stargate: Atlantis -- The Post-Trinity phenomenon

Stargate: Atlantis -- The Post-Trinity phenomenon is a short 2007 meta essay by iibnf. 
It explains the "post-trinity" trope in Stargate: Atlantis and collects many links to fics with address this episode, as well as including commentary on the fiction. 
Some tropes included are Fix-it, You Big Bully, Grovelfic, and Whumping.
Each fic is given a Lemon Chicken Rating which is an opinion about: "How angsty it is - like, is lemon chicken actually served or does the shunning just make Rodney feel like he wants to eat it and die..." The term "lemon chicken" refers to Rodney McKay's severe allergies to food that contains any sort of citrus.
This essay also includes links to fics that are close to fulfilling the trope but not quite, as well as some parodies, and vids.

The meta post's creator, iibnf, includes this disclaimer: "Oh man, this post took forever to put together, weeks, as I had to keep stopping to read all the fics all over again! Now, before anyone gets offended by any comments I've made, or thinks I'm dissing the authors, you can stop that right now. I spent months hunting down every post-Trinity fic I could find not to mock them, but because I truly love them. Seriously, I'm addicted to Big Mean John/Poor Woobie Rodney fics! And if you don't like it, then screw you guys, I'm going to China! Screw you… China!"
