* AmazingTechnicolorPopulation: Regular-colored humans predominate, but Milliways has a smattering of weirdly colored but approximately human-looking patrons; some are {{Anthropomorphic Personification}}s, some are [[ReBoot sprites]], some are aliens, some are {{Mutants}}, and some are just weird like that.

* YearOutsideHourInside: For the vast majority of patrons, time in their world stops while they're in Milliways. However, while they're away from Milliways, [[NarniaTime there's no guarantee that the same amount of time will pass in their world as in the bar]], which has its own calendar (matching our world's).

However, while they're away from Milliways, [[NarniaTime there's no guarantee that the same amount of time will pass in their world as in the bar]], which has its own calendar (matching our world's). Examples have ranged from missing a few days (almost every character in the Bar), to two entire centuries in one case.
