    This seemed a little sus to me so I checked the dictionary. Merriam-Webster says wet can mean consisting of liquid such as water. (See 1a of screen capture).

      Also if two water molecules are next to each other then are they not making each other wet?

          Hydrogen bonding with just any molecule they bump into. Those promiscuous polar particles.
