I don't know how they make muffins where you live, but they make them wrong.

In the UK we would call it one of the following depending where you live.

  • Muffin
  • Bread roll
  • Barm cake
  • Cob
  • Bun
  • Bap

If I dared to travel 15 minutes in any direction and use the wrong word they would be sure to say do you mean X. Even though they know exactly what I mean.

Bun

So... the thing burgers go on?

To be a pedant I would say the burger goes in, but yes.

North Manchester myself and we would call it a muffin. I know a muffin in North America would be a small cake kinda thing.

I drive 60 mins to work and I’m asking for a Barm.

Okay, well then I'm not sure what the issue is. The person is holding up a hamburger and the outside of the hamburger is the bun or the muffin or whatever.

Oh I’m sorry for the confusion.

I was saying it’s a muffin as I really don’t see a burger so it just looks like a muffin.

I’m not trying to cause an argument here, perhaps a misunderstanding on all parts.

Really? It could be a dogshit sandwich for all we know.

Considering they called it a burger, I think it's safe to assume it's a burger.

[-] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

But not a hamburger

drive 60 mins to work

Here I quit my job over RTO and a 35min train commute.

You need usable transit, my dude.

I only do two days in the office now.

If I took the train it would be around 2 hours to get there. I did for a while and it hurt lol.

I am lucky in that I work as a software dev for a tiny company and they’re very chill in all aspects, although I would like to WFH full time but I feel in time I’ll get that.
