I was going to say and here I thought you were just right.. but then I realized you're not a bowl of porridge..

Certainly not.

Nah, you're a lot more fun and interesting than a bowl of porridge.

I certainly hope so

Don't worry, you are.

Ooooooookei...

What's the difference between porridge and oatmeal?

Porridge oats are usually ground finer, and when cooked has a texture more like cream of wheat.
Oatmeal as Americans know it is usually just rolled (crushed between rollers) which gives it more of a lumpy texture.
What they sometimes sell us under the name of  "Scotch Oats" has usually been chopped up with knives (no Scotch involved at all, sadly  )

See, this is why every forum should have a Farmer-in-Residence.

Now ask my why porridge is grey.

But there seems to be a wide variety in the meaning of 'porridge'. I've seen it applied to what Americans would call granola.
