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.

Oil floats on water.

1. Cover yourself in oil

2. Wait for it to rain

3. Fly

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

This water is lubricated

I'm wet 😏

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.

This water is upside down ukrainian.

Now do mayonnaise

What happens if they're at 50/50?

Water is not wet

This is not as wet as I am.
