Riddle: What never gets any wetter, no matter how much it rains?
Answer: The sea
Riddle Explanation + Meaning
The sea is a vast body of saltwater that covers much of the Earth's surface.
Rain is water that falls from clouds in the sky.
When it rains, water adds to bodies of water like ponds, lakes, and rivers, making them fuller.
However, the sea is so huge that the amount of rain falling into it does not significantly increase its water level.
Therefore, the sea does not get "wetter" or noticeably increase in volume with rain.
This riddle plays with the idea that while rain makes many things wet, it doesn't change the sea in a way we can easily observe.
The cleverness of the riddle lies in understanding how vast the sea is and recognizing that its interaction with rain is different from smaller bodies of water.
