Side topic:
ls "normalburger" a word commonly used in English?
If so, what does it mean (I assume it does not refer to grilled beef patties?)
My English dictionary draws a blank here...

Maybe it's a regional thing, but I don't think it's a common phrase. I've heard "nothing-burger" a lot, and this may be someone playing off that.

No, I think the expression it plays off of is “nothing-burger” which is more common. Like, when everyone is expecting a very bad or very good thing to happen and nothing comes of it: “Well, that was a big nothing-burger” … that and leftist online discourse calling the US “burgerland” or the burger-reich
