So if I push you into a pool, ruin your jays, and you in a pool, are you really not going to consider yourself wet?
I am not a fish. my "world" exist above on land. A fishes world is the ocean. lakes other bodies of water.land might as well be outerspace to fish
 
I'm not sure i'm understanding completely. Do you mean that it's different for the fish than for people? How can we know what it's like for fish if the only way we can understand and experience the world is through our human senses? We have no idea what it's like to experience the world through fish senses
 
And that still dont answer the question.

If someone pushed u into a pool....are u wet in the pool or are u still dry til u come out the pool?

Its different because their "world" is UNDER THE WATER


@ChicagoFigure wet obviously you dummy

So if a human is submerged in water theyre wet

But if a fish is....well we cant possibly get that answer bc they live in water and they havent told us how they feel yet

Regardless of the fact that they still survive by taking in oxygen thru their gills...





Yet somehow im the dummy






Got it
 
Something is wet because of water. So water is already wet.

I don't think that reasoning works cause elements can spread properties without having those properties, and there's a few examples in this thread.

If Playmaker can give an example of dry water then i'll change my vote, but if water can't be dry then that suggests that it's because it's already wet

Is your reasoning for this because "equal and opposite"

No, it's a modus tollens argument.

If not wet, then dry.
Not dry, therefore, not not wet.
Double negatives cancel eachother out
which leaves us with wet.

In logical form, it would look like

~W → D
~D
_______
~~W
