      I heard of anecdote of a guy who worked as waiter for the rich in a luxury yacht. He said pretty much what rich people ever talk about is building more wealth. These people are psychopaths. They see life as material transactions.

        Wet is used as a synonym for rain in my local dialect. The endless flexibility of english is amazing. Noun that verb! Adjectivize all the words!

        Just don’t put colour before size in your stack of adjectives or everyone cringes, for some reason.

        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).
