      Unless you have isolated a single water molecule, it is in contact with other water molecules and therefore wet.

        Another line to take it is that if it cannot be made wet because it is wet by nature, water is the very concept of wet given form, so it is wet even if it’s what makes other things wet.

        Same way that light is bright.

              Do you mean to tell me people actually find that to be a funny joke? I genuinely thought it was just mega nerds trying to seem superior. Live and learn, I guess.

                No, my point was about you, not the other guy.

                Its not possible for one person to say whether a joke is funny or whether people should find it funny.

                The point is you’re spending time making pedantic comments calling someone else pedantic.

                At a certain point continuing to argue doesn’t convince, it confuses or confounds and undermines the intent.
