Winter. The Worst Season To Ever Exist. It's Cold And Wet And Gross, The Wind Goes Right Through You, And To Top It All Off, You Have To Watch Happy Couples Warm Each Other Up.

Fortunately, I Have Just The Thing To Help What Ails You. Let's Heat Things Up With A Debate, Shall We?

Every Food Can Either Be Categorized As A Soup, A Salad, Or A Sandwich. A Soup Is A Food Whose Liquid Content ("Soupiness") Is Deemed As "High". A Salad Is A Food Whose Liquid Content Is Deemed As Low ("Dressing"). A Sandwich Is Anything That Has What Could Feasibly Be Defined As Bread On Two Or More Sides.

Some Examples:
Pizza Is A Salad. The Liquid Ratio Is Almost None, Even In The Case Of The Greasiest Pizzas. While There Is Something That Can Be Defined As Bread ("The Crust"), It's Only On One Side. However, If You Fold A Pizza In Half, It Becomes A Sandwich.
Bread Bowl Soups Are Sandwiches. This Is Because It Functionally Has Bread On Two Or More Sides.
French Dip Sandwiches Are Soups, Despite Their Misleading Name. Dipping Them Into Au Jus Turns Them Incredibly Soggy, Leading To Their Classification.

Feel Free To Debate And Add Your Own Below. Just Don't Come To Blows Over This, Okay?

Such a question makes me wonder...is water itself wet?

I believe it is, yes.

But to be wet, one must be covered in a liquid. Is a liquid covering itself?

Another definition of wet is to "be in a liquid state", therefore, water must be wet, as it is in a liquid state.

[Unfortunately, I had to Google this one.]

That would be saying ice or steam isn't water.

They're Not. They're Ice And Steam. Solidified And Gaseous Versions Of Water, Yes, But There's A Reason They Go By A Different Moniker.

But chemically they are all the same thing.

If this debate is about chemical compounds, there are a lot of arguments that could be made. Chemically, you as a human are made of the same elements as a star. Are you a star?

How deep do we want to get here?

s. akehoshi This question is more suited to you, I think.

everyones a star lucysan

Are they?

I suppose, speaking chemically, that is true.

It'll Actually Feel A Little More Normal To Me If We Get Philosophical, So We Can Get As Deep As You'd Like.

My second thought to this really was just that humans are also 60% water.

My third thought is that, if I am recalling my middle school science correctly, humans share about 60% of their DNA with bananas. I would like to argue that this makes humans part banana.

gosh, is that true? i've been a human all my life, and i'm learning so much more about it today!

about sharing dna with bananas, i mean!

depends, it's not wet to fish because that's technically air to them.

So fish aren't wet.

they're dry in fish terms.

So water is dry, by your logic, and wet by Lucifer's.

i'm not a fish, so my opinions may not matter like they would an actual fish.

yes!!!!
also u only become wet once u get into dry air, so while ur in water ur not wet!!! its only bc theres no more water that ur stated to be wet!!!

But is the water itself wet?

u could actually say air is wet!

[she just wants to see this become a hot topic]

Only When It's Humid.

bzzt bzzt!!!!
u become wet when u step into air outside of water therefore its the air making u wet not the water!!!!
humidity is just air showing its true colors...!!!!!!
