Most fast food places I see these days have screens, digital price displays that can change by the minute.

I thought the origin of Daredevil and the Turtles were literally the same event also? The same chemicals that sprayed DD in the eyes and blinded him ran into the sewers and mutated the Turtles.

Doorways cause memory loss, whenever I'm going to a different room for something I say it out loud as I pass the threshold of the doorway.

Seems like actual viking burials were....burials...I'm no expert but skimming a few Google search results makes it seem like the burning ship thing never really happened, or at least rarely. Most vikings were ritually buried with weapons, grave goods and sacrifices. The burning boat thing is a Hollywood invention from a Thor myth maybe? Anyway this is why it's not allowed in most places, you'd need a professional to administer it with as you say a specially constructed ship designed to fully create a body. Your family can't tie together some logs and burn you themselves. So we're right back to an expensive funeral industry, but now we get to witness the cremations outdoors so maybe a win.

Burning rafts don't get hot enough to cremate a corpse, it'll just scorch you and dump your body in the lake to wash up on shore and terrify children.
