gandalf_der_12te, This is not as wet as I am.
spacesweedkid27, Oil floats on water.
- Cover yourself in oil
- Wait for it to rain
- Fly

UraniumBlazer, I’m wet 😏
hakunawazo, This water is upside down ukrainian.
Smorty, ?
hakunawazo, Lame joke about flag colors
Smorty, Ooh ok. Thanks
NorthWestWind, What happens if they’re at 50/50?
Master, Then the wet is oily.
boborhrongar, OOH! OOH! I have something prepared for this. https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/578c3cac-d6f1-4cec-a8d2-adcc3f3228e6.png
itslilith, this oilwater is Ukrainian 🇺🇦
itslilith, Water is not wet
boborhrongar, Seething wet water denier
vale, I’m going to die on this hill that water is not inherently wet (and by extension oil is not inherently oily).
To say that something is wet, it needs two components: water and not water. You can say that a surface is wet because the water can be removed. If you remove water from water it’s just less water. You can say that the container that the water is in is wet, but not of the water itself.
The same applies to oil as well.
bequirtle, why does it need not water? what purpose does this distinction serve? what do we gain by deciding that water is not wet?
soggy_kitty, We gain inner peace
Tlaloc_Temporal, And I will continue to assail your hill with; wet is a property that water has.
Wet is simply the surface tension balance of a substance. If a fluid sticks to somthing, it is wet. You can wet your brush, yes, but also wet a soldering iron, or wet every surface with superfluid. Wet refers to the conducting of fluid, capillary action, all the effects of surface tension adhering to something.
How wetting a substance is of another substance is usually measured by the angle a droplet makes upon contact. More sticky (adhesive) and less blobby (cohesive) means more wetting. Cohesion being simply self-adhesion means any fluid with surface tension necessarily totally wets itself, otherwise it’s a gas. And since water is a cohesive liquid (with a rather strong surface tension), it is by definition wet.
IndiBrony, Water is sticky.
pokemaster787, Now do mayonnaise
boborhrongar, On it
metaStatic, this is all moist
Maco1969, (edited ) This is incorrect, oil is lighter than water so one instance is impossible.
Edit, I’m wrong about all of this, there is no instance where water is above oil, apologies.
tkk13909, Which instance is impossible?
embed_me, The one he imagined in his mind
Maco1969, The one with water above oil.
tkk13909, None of the four have water above oil
Maco1969, You are quite right, I am wrong about everything I posted on this thread, apologies.
ObviouslyNotBanana, This water is lubricated

What’s he like? It’s not important
Particle man
Is he a dot, or is he a speck?
When he’s underwater does he get wet?
Or does the water get him instead?
Nobody knows, Particle man
