As someone who likes his porridge hot this story never made sense to me.

[–] floo@retrolemmy.com 25 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It’s really disgusting when it’s cold.

Well yeah you are supposed to eat it when it's just right. Didn't you read the story?

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 11 points 2 weeks ago

I always assumed it was close to scalding, like to the point where an adult (or a bear) would be able to blow on it a few times and eat it, but Goldilocks being a dumb child was just burning her tongue.

Thanks, I know this story by name but I've never actually heard the story.

Now that I've read it, it seems very poorly written overall but I guess it's just a children's story and it doesn't really matter.

No they were red and no locks which is why she was able to burglar the Bears

[–] then_three_more@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Spoiling the fun. You're meant to say another story that it's not.

[–] helpImTrappedOnline@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Then why did you say the right story?

[–] anachrohack@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oatmeal, though I’d argue it’s specifically steel-cut oatmeal.

I'm in the South so when I was a kid a imagined the bears eating grits. It wasn't until I was older than I learned that porridge isn't grits

[–] match@pawb.social 38 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

They can't have been gone very long if one of the bowls of porridge is still too hot

[–] ziggurat@lemmy.world 27 points 2 weeks ago

Goldilocks slept for an undisclosed amount of time

[–] ByteJunk@lemmy.world 18 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

You underestimate how hot a bowl of porridge can be.

The Porrigean theory has drawn a lot of attention lately from top theoretical physicists, and it addresses this very phenomenon.

It advances the hypothesis that the Big Bang was in fact a Primordial Porridge Bowl in a 4 dimensional plane that was so unbelievably hot that it was immediately dropped on the floor, and the projections of this spilled Primordial Porridge into a 3D plane are what we observe as "our universe".

thank you for the new religion

[–] ByteJunk@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

You've seen us with our bowl cuts, honouring the Primordial Porridge.

When was the last time you made tea? You leave for a few minutes, forget about it, and come back a couple hours later

[–] inbeesee@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

I remember the bears leaving so it could cool down for a bit. I guess that's been added by other annoyed storytellers

[–] RedEyeFlightControl@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

The completely ignored laws of thermodynamics in this story always bugged me

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

I love the Tiny Toons episode of this story. The bears get the sudden urge to do a capitalism, so they get in the station wagon and go to the local megamall with their credit cards and leave the doors unlocked.

It was that hoity toity deer family walking by, with their white tails in the air like they’re better than us. We had to go out and “mingle”, show them we belong, help them understand the real hierarchy in the woods - but we got tired of chasing that vanity and took a while to get back
