* GoodPeopleHaveGoodSex: Averted, though their status as "good people" [[DysfunctionJunction is debatable]]. After Ter and Bet have sex, Ter remarks that it was like a faint spark in the distance. Bet explains that that's how it's like [[DeadToBeginWith when ghosts have sex]].

The Abaddon is a webcomic by Koren Shadmi. It tells the story of Ter, a young man trying to escape apartment 262, a place in which, for unknown reasons, destiny has put together a bunch of weird people who don't get along. As such, it is strongly reminiscent of Theatre/NoExit.

* AnimalMotifs: Flies. Ter notices a picture of one printed on the back pocket of Bet's pants. It comes up again as a stamping on a piece of chocolate stuck in the fur of Shel's cat. Given that they only had Ectobeer, coffee and milk in the apartment, Ter (incorrectly) interpreted it as a sign that there was a way out. Perhaps to drive home the point that they are all dead and/or in hell.
Added DiffLines:
* {{Uncoffee}}: Of a sort. There are only two foodstuffs normally present in the apartment, and plain ol' coffee is one of them. The other is Ectobeer, and [[ATankardOfMooseUrine what it stands in for]] is pretty self-explanatory. They get some milk at times, though, but it's mostly hoarded by Bet, who uses it to put Vic to sleep [[CantHoldHisLiquor when he gets too rowdy]], which makes it [[GRatedDrug something else entirely]].
