Have you heard of this thing called marketing? It turns out if you change the name of a product it can sell more.

Yeah that’s why and that’s why I’m mad about it. It’s like an annoying commercial and air fryer owners act like I’m insulting them personally when I say it’s a convection oven. gently caress I had one friend insist “no it’s not *just* that, it has *something* special about it.”

I’ll never not be mad about people being tricked by marketing bullshit.

That’s what got me here in the first place. But I’ll try again and see if I care less about air fryers this time.

You have a genuine personal problem if you can't help but get mad at someone enjoying something in this context.

I use mine regularly, but not for grilling steaks. Mostly grilled sandwiches, and the occasional piece of pork chop.

Does your air fryer have fuzzy logic so you know when they're done?

idk I always thought a toaster oven was just a smaller radiant heating oven like a normal oven whereas an air fryer is a convection oven with a smaller volume so it preheats faster and responds better to a timer but has no self-cleaning capability

An air fryer is literally anything that both: 1) generates hot air and 2) has a fan.

Thus, as they lack any fans, the Haas F1 team is not an air fryer.

I was in the grocery store the other day wearing my Renault F1 Team facemask (thanks again ilmucche!) and a security guard came up to me as asked if it was an actual Renault mask. I said yes and he said he was a fan and we chatted about F1 for a bit. He mentioned his favourite team was Ferrari, and I went "Oh, I'm sorry to hear that." and he laughed and then looked sad for a minute.

Welp, that's my off-season F1 story.

Meanwhile, somewhere in Grove, work begins on next season's Williams F1 car...


That reminds me of an amusing anecdote.

Years ago I was at a revival racing event at Thruxton with the family and a guy walked past wearing a Williams shirt. My mother in law said "He must work there too!".

She's a stupid old bitch.
