I thought Chuck Norris was too.
To be honest, Chuck Norris often seemed like a cartoon character to me. I mean, he never even works up a sweat beating up bad guys.
In real life, he'd have been a rissole long ago.
When I was really young, I learned to speak a language that I later forgot and had a bit of identity crisis. And I thought the characters from the Snoopy cartoon were real.
At least adults in real life don't sound like a trombone playing a "wah-wah" sound.
