The Inventory: a former speakeasy founded against the possibility of an early draft of the 18th Amendment even more stringent than the one we know, now re-purposed as a highly exclusive club.

* [[Anachronism Stew]]: Heavy is updated from ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'''s 50s-60s stylized setting, but only updated to about the mid-80s (he listens to Huey Lewis and believes [[Purple Rain]] is recent), while Strong Bad and Tycho talk over computer setups and internet sites.
Line 24:
* [[Berserk Button]]:
** Strong Bad whenever asked about his "[[Red Boxing Gloves|boxing gloves]]."

** Heavy makes it clear multiple times that the Spy is his least favorite ''[[Team Fortress 2]]'' character. See also [[This Cannot Be!]] below.
* [[Big No]]: Strong Bad will occasionally let this go when he gets eliminated.

{{quote|'''Heavy:''' Strong and bad, how is boxing career?
'''Strong Bad:''' '''[[
'''Heavy:''' I was boxer once. In school. We have to either box or learn to herd goats. I am not good with goats.
'''Strong Bad:''' ''(singing)'' [[Too Much Information]], man. You're "[[The Adjectival Superhero|Too Much Information Man]]."
