Do Laputans like Brobdingnagians?
 
My daughter recently visited Laputa and says that she heard some of the inhabitants commenting about her size.
They even complained that she took up too much room in restaurants, but she rightly says that if they want her Brobdingnagian money, they will have to accept the fact that she fills the average Laputan restaurant on her own.
Don't think Laputa, think Lilliput. They should change their crazy restaurant sizes to suit her.

What did she make of the portion sizes in the restaurants?

Zerlina Oct 12th, 2007 08:09 AM

And was the food enough like the Brobdingnagian food she gets at home?

I don't expect that she would want to share a course.
She could eat a whole Houyhnhnm on her own.

As she's at least 50 times bigger than the locals, she's going to find it difficult to "blend in" whatever she wears ;-)

OPQ: No and for good reason IME

Of course she couldn't blend in - she had on white sneakers and a fanny pack!
