      That’d be 691077 regular sized hamburgers laid next to each other in a rigid grid pattern, 797502 if laid in a hexagonal pattern, 891720 if squished.

          Strictly speaking zero depth, but to build one you need at least some amount of surface to stand on. A good one has grass, which needs a few inches of soil, but a really good one also has crushed stone and other layers before that.

          Do you really mean to learn?

          Cause we’re living in a world of fools, breaking us down. When they all should let us be.
