Retrieving Cheeseburgers from a Flying Skyscraper. Why?

superman glided around aimlessly through the visually cacophonous, yet comparably silent city. gradually, a certain strong smell wafted into his nose through the ambient melee. yes, it was delicious cheeseburgers. quickly, he changed course and headed towards them. a familiar gigantic shape appeared out of the clouds. it was hard to describe its exact features, since it was so huge, and the visibility not so great. it was essentially like a floating skyscraper, zooming laps around the outside of the city. cheeseburgers dotted its surface, their smell overwhelming, their taste intensely fresh in his memory. superman was entranced, uncontrollably attracted, his eyes glazed over and half closed as if he were a hypnotized cartoon character.

the flying monstrosity was going almost as fast as a speeding bullet, so superman did all he could to barely keep up, and it was a true test of his skill to simply swim next to it. swooping under the belly of the monster, diving to the surface and bouncing off with a mouthfull of food, grabbing succulent parasites from competing supermen, poking into the gills of the shark. maybe he would even try to pick old food from the car sized teeth, but that was risky. the shark had come to the reef peacefully in order for superman to clean him, but that doesnt mean his teeth arent sharp.

after an hour or two of fun and delicious cheeseburger retrieval, superman stopped. his cape flapped in the breeze as his brow furrowed and he asked himself ‘is this all that there is to life? will i ever experience anything more meaningful than this fun yet shallow food retrieval exercise?’ he hovered, and his cape flapped, and he pondered. soon he realized that no, he will never experience anything different besides perhaps a brief mating interlude. by the time he realized this, he had forgotten what he was so bored of. he tried to remember what it was, and by the time he gave up, the smell of cheeseburgers had returned and he excitedly flew off to retrieve the gloriously sensuous chunks of irrational goodness.
