"Fair enough."

"...For your calibration most burger places don't serve orca.  She just always wants to go to a specific one that does."

Permalink

"Most burger places don't even have, like, turkey burgers, my timeline, so that makes sense."

Permalink

"I think most places here have a couple-three choices at least.  ....But like, in the city.  Maybe not here here."

Permalink

"I guess maybe it depends how strict you are with definitions of 'burger'. Like, McDonalds'll put chicken on a sandwich for you and that's not a burger, and has a plant based vegetarian thing these days and that is."

Permalink

"I mean, you could put chicken in a patty - and then you'd have a chicken patty, but if you then did not bread it you'd have a chicken burger.  It's like a specific form factor.  They just mostly don't do that for some reason."

Permalink

"Yeah, I've seen turkey burgers but not chicken burgers and don't know why."

Permalink

"Chicken burgers are reasonably popular in Aldovia."

Permalink

"Where's Aldovia?"

Permalink

"Central Europe."

Permalink

"...doesn't sound familiar but I might not know about all the countries in Central Europe."

Permalink

".....They like, speak English.  Primarily!"

Permalink

"...not like 'they all learn it in school so you can get by there with English as a tourist' but 'it's the principal native language of the majority of Aldovians'? Okay, that makes it weirder that I haven't heard of it. How long has it existed?"

Permalink

"Over seven centuries."

Permalink

"...okay, that either pushes back the latest possible date at which our timelines could have diverged by a lot, or we used to have an Aldovia and it got folded into some other country at some point or doesn't speak English in my world and I don't happen to remember it. I'd ask for a map but it would be unrelatedly hard to look at one."

"Do you think you could like, draw?  For the benefit of another person?"

Permalink

"I might not know for sure till I try it but my guess is that I can doodle a little map to give someone directions if I natter on about it the whole time and cannot do a portrait commission even if we assume for the sake of argument my drawing skills were up to such a task."

Permalink

"I guess it doesn't seem that important to nail down a bunch of differences very quickly.  Though maybe you find it more interesting to talk about than other stuff?"

Permalink

"Timeline differences? I do find them interesting but would not expect to be able to draw an accurate enough European map from memory to help."

Permalink

"Wait really?  ....I'm kidding; that's not a difference.  I can't do that either."

Permalink

"I wouldn't expect many people to be able to. I can just about fill in all the provinces on a blank political map."

Permalink

"Okay, that I can do.  There aren't that many of them!  ...Is it still ten, for you?  And three territories?"

Permalink

"Yes, that's the same. Numerically." He can list them in case they differ non-numerically.

Permalink

"Those match."

"Apparently Central Europe features little in Canadian history."
