  • It was an air fryer for me.

    I’m disabled, so I’m usually home alone, or cooking one meal for me and my kid. The oven takes about 10 minutes to preheat, and most things take 20 - 30 minutes to cook after that. The air fryer takes about half the time and doesn’t need me to turn things.

    On top of that, I get memory issues, probably related to ADHD, and sometimes forget that I’ve got something cooking. The air fryer has a timer and switches itself off. I literally can’t burn the food and risk a fire. At worst it goes cold again 🤷🏻‍♂️

    EDIT: I got it wrong sorry. There was a post on Reddit with similar looking rolls from Bristol.


    The photo was posted to Reddit at least a year ago, and was apparently from an English pub that wanted to sell ‘real’ pub snacks again. The roll cost something like £1.50, where most snacks like this go for around £5 or more.

    There was a big discussion on the landlord’s chopping skills, but he claimed that it was really popular 👍

    On a side note, I’d really enjoy that roll, as long as it’s got a bit of butter so it’s not too dry 🙂




  • I know a few older people who have smartphones, and while they can use things like Twitter or Facebook on the phone, if you told them that you were installing an app, they wouldn’t know what you meant.

    They’re the type of people who were never interested in computers, and used them as appliances, possibly never needing to install things themselves. As they moved to phones, they either get their kids or the shop to set them up.

    They understand using Twitter on the phone, but don’t really understand the concept of how it works.
