Superheroes, the universe's answer to the ever-present question, 'Who will save us now?' often dressed in spandex, which is a textile with the uncanny ability to simultaneously shrink-wrap one's dignity along with their body. These beings of immense power, questionable fashion choices, and often-complicated backstories, grace various galaxies with their antics of morality and muscle. They are known for their unique abilities, such as flying without the benefit of an Electronic Thumb, seeing through solid objects with less radiation than a microwave burrito, and lifting objects that would make a Vogon Constructor Fleet feel a bit inadequate.
When traveling to a superhero-infested metropolis, ensure your insurance covers 'Acts of Heroism' and carry a portable hole to jump into at the first sign of falling debris.
Superheroes can be predominantly found in cities with an excess of skyscrapers and a severe shortage of common sense. Alternatively, check any nearby phone booths, assuming you can find one not already converted into a quaint coffee shop.
Befriending a superhero is not recommended for those fond of privacy, calm Sunday brunches, or low life insurance premiums. Additionally, avoid attending events with 'Doom', 'Apocalypse', or 'Unveiling' in the title if you're not fond of uninvited power-clad guests.
The capes, often worn as a fashion statement by the more flamboyant superheroes, were originally intended as napkins for intergalactic food festivals, but a misdelivery turned them into the iconic accessory we know today.
Looking for the superhero experience without the risk of disintegration? Try 'Capes & Lattes' – the first café where you can enjoy a cosmic cappuccino while wearing a cape of your choice. Disclaimer: Capes do not endow the wearer with superpowers, flight is not recommended.

Potholes, the universe's way of reminding you that no matter how advanced your civilization, the roads, like life, will have its ups and downs - mostly downs, in this particular case. These surprising dips in the asphalt fabric of society are where the optimism of road engineers go to die, alongside the unsuspecting suspensions of many a star-hopping vehicle. Often thought of as portals to other dimensions by the more imaginative and less informed hitchhikers, potholes are, in fact, merely portals to your local vehicle repair shop.

Time travel, the cherished dream of every historian with a deadline or a partygoer who just remembered they left the oven on a week last Tuesday. It's the simple act of hopping between different points in the fourth dimension as if it were as easy as changing lanes on the intergalactic superhighway (mind the potholes). To the layperson, time travel is about as comprehensible as a game of Brockian Ultra-Cricket - which is to say, not at all. But fear not, your trusty Guide is here to untangle the temporal spaghetti that is time travel. Theoretically, all you need is a robust understanding of quantum mechanics, a dash of general relativity, a ship that goes faster than light (don't ask about the speed limit), and a reservation at Milliways, the Restaurant at the End of the Universe, for that full, time-travel dining experience.
