BREAKING NEWS Report “95% of water : wet”

shit that would be breaking news if only 95% of it was wet lol

I guess really cold water isn't really "wet" per-se. What did I just write...

The truth! Water is not wet, it is a liquid that imparts the property of "wet" to other objects

Anything wet can impart wetness to other things. That’s like saying a sponge isn’t wet because it makes other things wet.

The properties of water are what make something wet, so water isn’t NOT wet—water is 100% wetness. It’s the wettest anything can be.

Note that it didn’t say the other 5% WASNT wet, just that 95% if it was.
