15
16	--> It's a hamburger. Or maybe it's a cheeseburger. Whatever. Things squirm in its rancid, dribbling ground beef. Its unblinking eyeballs bulge hungrily. It's such a ludicrous sight you almost don't notice the blood-stained cleaver.
17
18	This rotting assembly of meat, wheat products, and vermin is employed as a chef at the hospital's cafeteria. Though he might look simple, he's surprisingly agile with a meat cleaver.
19	----
20	* AbhorrentAdmirer: Harmburger's NOT comfortable when Fern begins hitting on him.
21	* AnthropomorphicFood: He's like some putrescent, bug-infested cousin of [[http://mcdonalds.wikia.com/wiki/Mayor_McCheese Mayor McCheese.]]
22	* BewareTheSillyOnes: If the cleaver wasn't enough warning. He's also been [[http://www.bogleech.com/awfulhospital/file-harmburger.png warned]] against infiltrating the hospital for [[ParanoiaFuel reasons unknown]].
23	--> '''Dr. Phage:''' "On a more personal note, ''yeesh'', this guy."
24	* ChefOfIron: When there's an enemy to fight, Harmburger brings out his cleaver.
25	* ExpressiveMask: Harmburger's body is thoroughly infested with vermin that form facial expressions for him. He even [[SweatDrop anime-sweatdrops]]... with a blue slug.
26	* MascotVillain: [[http://bogleech.com/awfulhospital/foodcourtandohyeahtheresahospitalattachedweguess.png Harmburger is]] to Burgrr Inc. what Colonel Sanders is to UsefulNotes/KentuckyFriedChicken.
27	* MuckMonster: Every bit as much one as [[FanonPokedex/{{Trubbish}} Trubbish and Garbodor]] from the Pokemon series.
28	* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: ''HARM''-burger.
29	* PoorCommunicationKills: Nearly killed Staphelia because [[spoiler:they were]] unable to communicate to him that the FRN-1 Neckslob was [[spoiler:their]] ship. The Commentators were able to clear things up for him, but it was challenging because they had to convey the message through a limited number of emojis.
30	* TheSecretOfLongPorkPies: Consuming his sloppy joes is not recommended.
31	* TheSpeechless: One single sigh is all that Harmburger's ever vocalized, so far.
32	--> ''[[http://www.bogleech.com/awfulhospital/122.html The thing]] sighs audibly, slumps a little and gazes sadly to the floor.''

35	[[folder:BBQ Girll]]
36
37	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bbqgrill2.png]]
38	[[caption-width-right:350:Garrulous, gleeful, genki grill girl.]]
39
40	--> '''BBQ Girll''': We will need to [[TechnoBabble conceptualize the appropriate deverberator, and unfortunately, we are not cleared for manifestation outside our conceptual zones.]] We will need you to bring back the correct materials from The Hospital.
41	--> '''Fern''': ...What kind of "materials?"
42	--> '''BBQ Girll''': Don't sweat it, bubbleguts, [[QuestGiver we made you]] [[FetchQuest a list]].
43
44	An anthropomorphic barbecue grill with corporate cheer and spirit to spare. She appears to manage the Burgrr facility adjacent to(?) the hospital's cafeteria.
45	----
46	* BewareTheSillyOnes: Laugh at her antics, but don't go near her meat grinder.
47	* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Thought it would be a real treat for Fern to [[spoiler:eat herself]].
48	* CloudCuckoolander: She's a bit ditzy.
49	* CuteAndPsycho: She really, ''really'' likes edible BodyHorror.
50	* DissonantSerenity: She never stops smiling.
51	* EatsBabies: After ([[TimeyWimeyBall so to speak]]) brains, they discovered gray-zoner genitalia. Babies come ''pre-marinated''.
52	* GameFace: She has a nightmarish, hot-grease-oozing alternate form.
53	* HasAType: Likes "Cuties". Her character journal shows she is "Single :c", though.
54	* HollywoodTourettes: A non-profanity-based version.
55	--> '''BBQ Girll''': ''We'' are not of The Hospital. We are of the MARVELOUS FOOD DREAM!!! 1000% EAT!!!
56	--> '''Fern''': ...What?
57	--> '''BBQ Girll''': What's what? Look, chesterflap, if you've branched correctly you should be perceiving the MEAT TIMES ETERNITY, FLESH FOR A WORLD OF MEALENATING.
58	* MeatVersusVeggies: BBQ Girll's profile has a striking red and underlined dislike of "vegetation". A hard dislike that seems to be shared by the rest of Burgrr, if their completely meat-based food is anything to go by.
59	* TheNicknamer: "Meatlet", "[[{{Foreshadowing}} joemaam]]", "bugprince", "kangaroo", "crablocks"... and those are just the first few.
60	* PerkyFemaleMinion: She's always highly energetic!
61	* PlayingWithFire: In combat, her weapon of choice is some kind of [[OurGhostsAreDifferent toothy charcoal ghost thing]] that she keeps under her hat.
62	* UnexplainedRecovery: As told in the original ''Literature/BurgrrEntries'' and later mentioned by BBQ Girll in her blog, she had her "bio-core" smashed with a shovel. She got better and seemed to treat the entire incident as just a minor annoyance.
63	* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Now enjoy your [[spoiler:complimentary [[{{Autocannibalism}} autoconceptual foodmatters]]]]!

66	[[folder:Double Doors(?!?!) ]]
67
68	[[quoteright:334:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ddoors_1510.png]]
69	[[caption-width-right:334:You're not leaving on an empty stomach.]]
70
71	--> '''Double Doors''': There's only one way out of here with that thing, and you're prooobably not gonna like it near as much as I am. [[EvilHasABadSenseOfHumor It's really really funny to me.]]
72
73	The pair of doors leading into the hospital's cafeteria, which can speak directly into the protagonist's mind. It's witty and generally friendly, though it does push the cafeteria's meals a tad aggressively. Its name is [[spoiler:)(_)(]].
74	----
75	* AffablyEvil: Just a highly enthusiastic... salesdoor.
76	* EldritchAbomination: [[spoiler:Dear God, [[http://www.bogleech.com/awfulhospital/163.html what IS that thing?!?!]] BBQ Girll's CharacterBlog [[http://www.bogleech.com/awfulhospital/blogbbq.html implies]] that it's [[GrewBeyondTheirProgramming grown beyond its programming]] in ways that are worrying even the Burgrr staff.]]
77	* FoodChains: [[spoiler:The Double Doors wanted Fern to eat that sloppy joe the way [[Literature/TheLionTheWitchAndTheWardrobe Jadis wanted Edmund Pevensie to eat her Turkish Delight]].]]
78	* HollywoodTourettes: Another non-profanity-based version.
79	--> '''Fern''': ...What did you say you were the doors to, again?
80	--> '''Double Doors''' Huh? I didn't say. What are youu'''ULTIMATE FEAST MATTER SINGS A SECRET MEAL TIME WISH'''abbling on about?
81	* NoSell: Fern attempts to smuggle the sloppy joe out of the cafeteria by stowing it into her hyperspace tote bag. Double Doors remains firmly closed.
82	* OurDoorsAreDifferent: Door-ish, sapient, highly persuasive circuit webs, to be precise.
83	* ThisCannotBe: [[spoiler:Double Doors is rather astonished that the "weapon" Fern selects to defeat him ends up working.]]
84	* TheUnpronounceable: Good luck getting [[spoiler:)(_)(]] through a human throat.
85	* VillainOverride: [[spoiler:What an M1 Abrams tank is to forceful entry, Double Doors is to MindControl. He doesn't ''merely'' try to hypnotize Fern, he '''barrages''' her mind with psychic coercion, and even [[http://www.bogleech.com/awfulhospital/162.html reaches past the fourth wall to "edit" the words of the Commentators who're screaming at Ms. Green to resist his influence, so it looks like they're agreeing with him.]]]]
86	* WeaksauceWeakness: [[spoiler: A yellow sticky note on which the words "Out Of Order Sorry" are written beside a frowny face.]]
87	* WhamLine:
88	--> [[spoiler: '''Fern''': The mouth guy...]]
89	--> [[spoiler: '''Double Doors''': Forget him.]]
90	--> [[spoiler: '''Fern''': ...but he has a key I nee-]]
91	--> [[spoiler: '''Double Doors''': No, not him. Your kid. Forget him. >Eat your sandwich. You've earned it!]]

101
102	[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/redhead.png]]
103	[[caption-width-right:350:Yeah, Earth was destroyed by monsters, but nobody back there mattered to her anyway.]]
104
105	--> '''Miss''': How you holding up, anyway?
106	--> '''Fern''': "Holding up?"
107	--> '''Miss''': Wwweeeee don't really get all that many... human being people lately. Not since home got all, you know.
108	--> ''The young lady makes a breathy mouth sound and gesticulation representative of something exploding.''
109
110	A young redheaded human woman, working as a Burgrr cashier, alongside Stone Slab.
111	----
112
113	* ConditionedToAcceptHorror: Even before the events of Awful Hospital, she was already experiencing branchitization and began to see things that most people from the Grey Zone could not. She got used to it over time, so by the time the Grey Zone got messed up, it was just the tip of the iceberg for her.
114	* FantasticallyIndifferent: As Fern notes, she is awfully calm about the apocalypse back on Earth.
115	* ForcedSleep: Can invoke this with her phone, using what the comic calls Sigh Wave.
116	* GuestStarPartyMember: Joins the team for a battle against a Folder, but Bogleech has [[WordOfGod stated]] that having her join permanently would cause too many delays.
117	* HomeworldEvacuation: Somehow, she was able to survive and escape the Gray Zone's apocalypse and found a new life for herself here at Burgrr.
118	* {{McJob}}: Her vocation, here at Burgrr.
119	* AMillionIsAStatistic: Basically the reason she manages to be so FantasticallyIndifferent. What happened to her homeworld was just ''so'' weird and on such a large scale that she can't really contextualize it enough to be upset about it.
120	* NoNameGiven: She's a rebellious teen who isn't on the best terms with her family as well as transgender. When Fern asks for her name, she says she's undecided and still working on it. She eventually lets Fern go with "miss".
121	* NonStandardCharacterDesign: She's the first bona fide human being Fern's encountered since she was brought to the Hospital, (not counting [[AmbiguouslyHuman Dr. Man,]]) whose body has normal, natural coloration.
122	* ProHumanTranshuman: Her time in the zones has given her all sorts of superhuman fatigue inducing abilities through her phone, and she prefers Fern's company over that of her co-workers.
123	* ReluctantWarrior: She's not a particularly violent sort, but when the Folder attacks, we get to see she's not just much more durable than you'd think, she can use her phone to fire attacks.
124	* TokenHuman: She's the first proof that they exist in other non-Gray places besides The Hospital!
125	* TransTribulations: Being transgender is implied to be part of why she's on bad terms with her mother.
126	* TheSlacker: She doesn't have much interest in working hard. When she was supposed to be watching the front counter she simply propped up a mop to take her place while she sat in the break room.
127	* TheStoner: Miss replied "lucky" to being informed that Fern was gassed and now acting loopy. Later when having to prod Fern now in a slob body out of the store she thinks to herself "I miss being high".
