They never actually traveled by balloon in the book, so I don't know if this is written by someone that never read the book, or if its written by someone that saw a book with a balloon on the cover and then got really confused because it never happens. Judging by this being Macanudo and the typical twee bullshit happening, I'm guessing the former.

That's a bow tie. The best kind of tie.

Black tie is a semi-formal Western dress code for evening events, originating in British and North American conventions for attire in the 19th century. In British English, the dress code is often referred to synecdochically by its principal element for men, the dinner suit or dinner jacket. In American English, the equivalent term tuxedo (or tux) is common. The dinner suit is a black, midnight blue or white two- or three-piece suit, distinguished by satin or grosgrain jacket lapels and similar stripes along the outseam of the trousers. It is worn with a white dress shirt with standing or turndown collar and link cuffs, a black bow tie, typically an evening waistcoat or a cummerbund, and black patent leather dress shoes or court pumps. Accessories may include a semi-formal homburg, bowler, or boater hat. For women, an evening gown or other fashionable evening attire may be worn.

I don't remember "Heart=Throb" from when I was reading Curtis in the 90's, but he's definitely been slotted into the position that Gunk was back then.in the strips I've seen posted in the thread, with Gunk backburnered.

Is this the first time we've seen "Heart-Throb's" first name?

Same here in the US. It was kinda awkward for me since I didn't own a car, and despite my apartment being within walking distance they wouldn't just let me walk out.

Is “you lose your appetite in summer” just a Japan thing? I can’t remember hearing it before I came here, but it’s just a completely accepted bit of conventional wisdom here so I have no idea how accurate or widespread the idea is.

Pressure from gravity depends only on height, not surface area. The liquid inside the straw is pushing just as hard as the liquid outside the straw, so there needs to be a difference in air pressure to break that equilibrium. If it's just vacuum on both sides, there's nothing to disturb the liquid position.

I AM GRANDO posted:

Air pressure pushes the liquid up the straw when your mouth draws in the air inside the straw to create a vacuum. The solution is badly phrased, but the liquid in a straw moves up because the air in the room pushes down on it to cause it to fill the space created by the vacuum inside the straw. If Count Weirdly were in a vacuum, his straw wouldn’t work.

I am confident that you would adore Lavender Jack. There's a lot to say about it, but I think that a first-order approximation of the premise might be summarized as "What if they hired Poirot to bring in Batman?" and it only gets wilder from there. A delight start-to-finish.
