Your content DNA, decoded
Your Top Topics
With all the finesse of a historian who can name every battle while juggling artillery shells, Chris’s posts read like the history book you actually want to read (instead of the one you fell asleep on in high school).
Chris’s familial digging is akin to an archaeological expedition, except instead of bones, he’s uncovering distant relatives who were ‘really good at the piano’—thankfully, not all of us are tone-deaf!
Whether he’s roasting politicians or lamenting the state of local flooding, his current event commentary has the bite of a historian frustrated with modernity. It’s as if he’s saying, ‘If we survived WW1, surely we can deal with traffic jams!’
Writing Style
Chris's writing is a delightful mix of historical insight and sharp humor. He dances between somber reflection and light-hearted quips as if he’s hosting a TED Talk at the local pub—engaging, witty, and a little tipsy on knowledge.

The saucy details
Gentle Roasts
- 🔥For someone who writes about WW1, Chris has a knack for dodging modern issues like a recruit avoiding a battle—a true art form!
- 🔥‘Gregg Wallace devoid of talent’ is a roast that could be the title of his memoir—except it’s probably more interesting than the memoir itself!
- 🔥He’s ironic enough to leave even the most serious historians questioning their life choices, yet warm enough that you feel bad for laughing.
Quirky Challenges
- 😅Could use a bit more variety in post formats; we get it, you love military history—how about a meme?
- 😅Less time on BBC Radio 4, more time on Bluesky? The listeners will thank you later.
- 😅Maybe ease up on the historical facts for a hot minute? Not every tweet needs to feel like a Wikipedia entry.
Main Character Moments
- ✨When he bravely blocked Rees-Mogg—an act of heroism worthy of its own chapter in history!
- ✨His candid share about his health journey is touching and more impactful than most history lessons.
- ✨Every time he mentions a historical figure, you can almost hear him sigh like they’re an old friend with questionable life choices.

What is Bluesky Roast?
Bluesky Roast is an AI-powered tool that analyzes your Bluesky presence and turns it into a hilarious roast. With millions of users sharing content daily, I thought it would be fun to add some humor to social media analytics.
The AI combines advanced language models with comedy writing techniques to create personalized, witty observations about your posting habits, interactions, and overall Bluesky personality.
I'm Fekri, and I built Bluesky Roast to make social media analysis more entertaining. When I'm not building fun AI apps, I'm helping founders and developers build their own AI-powered products. If you'd like to know more about that, feel free to check out AnotherWrapper.com for more information!
