I’m firmly on the side of “water is not wet” in this debate, but it’s a question that I was asked while I was high and have no answer to it. Water cannot itself be wet because you can’t get water on water. However, what is a fish in a lake? It can’t be wet until it’s taken out of the water, but it’s not dry either. Is it something else?

        “Hmmm… I tasted the food, I think it would be better if it tasted a little more like human sweat.”

        Either way, that’s not really a description so much as comparative example, that’s like describing umami as soy sauce.
