Anyone who lived in the area had probably eaten there once, at some point. Anyone with any sense then waited a year to give their hearts a chance to recuperate.

  1. 1.0 1.1 “Then that’s settled. Let’s go eat.”

    Fugly Bobs was fast food of the most shameless kind, sold out of a part-restaurant, part-bar, part-shack at the edge of the Market, overlooking the beach. Anyone who lived in the area had probably eaten there once, at some point. Anyone with any sense then waited a year to give their hearts a chance to recuperate. It was the sort of place with burgers so greasy that if you ordered takeout, you could see through the paper bag by the time you got home. - Shell 4.2
  2. 2.0 2.1 Our food arrived, and we used extra plates to divvy up our individual side orders so we all had a little bit of each. That left each of us a mix of fries, sweet potato fries, onion rings and deep fried zucchini on an individual plate. The sides alone would have been more than enough raw foodstuff for a meal on its own, but there were also the burgers themselves, each large enough to take up nearly an entire plate. Lisa and I cut the bacon cheeseburger in half, and we each took a portion. - Shell 4.2
  3. The specialty burger was the Fugly Bob Challenger: if you could finish it, you didn’t have to pay for it. It probably went without saying that most people paid.
    [...]
    None of us were hungry, brave or dumb enough to order the Challenger. - Shell 4.2
  4. 4.0 4.1 4.2 Brian and Alec were already there when we arrived, and we ordered our food right off. Lisa and I agreed to split a bacon cheeseburger, Brian ordered a portobello-beef double-decker and Alec matched him with a Hideous Bob – Fugly Bob’s interpretation of a Big Mac. - Shell 4.2
  5. Brian and Alec had been sitting outside so they could spot us when we arrived. After a brief debate, we agreed to stick to the table they’d been sitting at. It was by the window, so we could see the TV. It was still cool enough that most people had ventured indoors. The only others outside were some college-aged guys, and they were sitting on the opposite end of the patio, occupied with beer and the game on the TV. The primary benefit was that we enough had privacy to talk. - Shell 4.2
  6. “So, what comes next?” I asked.

    “Dinner, then dessert,” Alec replied, his attention on the TV inside. - Shell 4.2
  7. “If Rachel was here, she’d be calling you a wuss again,” Alec commented.

    “I’ll just have to be glad she’s not here, then,” I smiled. - Shell 4.2
  8. “You’re a jerk, Lise,” Brian frowned, “Hogging the new girl to yourself.”

    “You get your morning meetings with her, I want to go shopping, cope,” Lisa stuck out her tongue at Brian.

    “Alright,” Brian shrugged, “Fugly Bob’s for dinner?”

    “Sounds good,” Lisa agreed. She turned to me, eyebrows quirked.

    “I’m down for Fugly Bob’s,” I conceded. - Shell 4.1
  9. The mall, the library, Fugly Bob’s, the boat graveyard, my old hideout, gone.

    My old territory, unrecognizable. The Boardwalk was underwater now.

    It didn’t even take him seconds to do. - Extinction 27.1
  10. She touched something on her desk, and the various panels behind each booth changed. They were video screens, three times as tall as they were wide, and each showed the same clip of Scion’s rampage.

    “United Kingdom, first target struck. Obliteration,” the Doctor said. “Eastern coast of Canada and the United States, damaged, but casualties were a third of what they were in the initial strike.” - Extinction 27.2
