What is so unusual about “real” cheeseburgers?

[voice forever]

[daragincajun]

Ain't many of 'em around no more!

I t'aught.

Hey Cher, you wouldn't mind tellin' me what's really goin' on here, would you?

There are in this world. Perhaps you are not from Earth, or this time.

You have been ported to this city by a false Iron Man. Little more than a robot. It is despicable, but currently, we know of no way out. Initially, this robot claimed that we were here to replace the missing police force and act as “heroes,” but has long since abandoned this farce. In short: we are stuck in an alternate universe. You are very much awake. Do as you wish.

... aw hell. You tellin' me I got myself wound up in some kinda time-dimension-kinda stuff?

[manlygirlskrull]

Correct. This is Earth, and the year is 2009.

You...

... you're not pullin' my leg or nuttin'. I can see dat.

But Jesus cher, I dunno what t' say.
