If you drop an accordion, a set of bagpipes and a viola off a 20-story building, which one lands first?

Probably the accordion, due to the lower surface-to-mass ratio. Of course, if it's in a vacuum it'll be the same for all three.

Oh, I get it. Because if they're all in a vacuum, they'd all have to hit at the same time.
....but that would have to be a pretty big vacuum to hold all three.

In a vacuum there is no wind resistance and so everything accelerates at the same rate.

It is not falling for a trick, it is me being purposefully hyper-literal because it is funny to me (cf. the bridge joke).

And it's not me not knowing that he is setting up the shtick. It's me getting ready to spike the ball at the right moment. A good team always needs a straight guy and a sidekick. And to add to the hilarity, fluffy is the straight guy in this team effort.
....it's a shame it ended. I had some Dyson and Hoover maneuvers ready to go. Not sure exactly what they were going to be, but I can bet that it was going to have something to do with the fact that the Dyson is the only vacuum that doesn't lose suction.

The Dyson Ball isn't ambitious enough. They need to make a Dyson Sphere. (Preferably in a different star system.)

You have to admit, Dyson is really on the ball.
