Mr. Porridge

Mr. Porridge is a philosopher and a former member of Slow Club. He is known for his well thought out opinions, but also for his poor skills as a public debater. He is capable of dramatically changing his position simply because he is afraid to offend his interlocutor. Afterwards, he would hastily revert to his original opinion.

A rivalry between Mr. Porridge and J. N. Spoilsport broke out somewhen in 2014, which ended in Mr. Porridge being expelled from Slow Club.

Mr. Porridge has famously argued that the TSF might be a whole species, and it is due to their eating habits that they must live millions of light years apart. This explains why we observe only a single TSF, which was designate as a “local TSF”. While J. N. Spoilsport used this as a pretext to expel Mr. Porridge from Slow Club, most philosophers and even Spoilsport himself believe that Mr. Porridge was right.

Mr. Porridge was good at being a member of the Guild, and even wore a Guild badge. He was let go due to the Slow Club scandal.

Mr. Porridge is currently a beggar somewhere on the streets.
