      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.

          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.

            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.
