Something is wet when water molecules are touching that thing, and when water molecules are touching each other they are making each other wet. So, for any amount of water we can perceive with our senses, it will always be wet because we can’t feel individual water molecules.

The sound waves or whatever it is called still occurs even when there is nothing around to detect the sound.

Yes...Mermeow Overlord's comment is just as accurate. And the birds in the trees were probably startled. The neighbor might have just stomped upstairs, but just because you didn't hear it doesn't mean it didn't sound like that to the occupants of they're house. Humans are self-absorbed, so we assume that if something happens that we don't know, it didn't count. In a room of deaf people, sounds still happen. I think it's pretty obvious, personally, but it's controversial I guess.

When I was a horrible teenager, one of my favourite jokes was 'if a tree falls onto a baby and there's no one there to see it, is it still funny?' Maybe I shouldn't admit that!

Those who were born with sight do, those who are born blind, mostly don't. (It actually also depends on why they are blind, eye or brain deficiency.) But it's really hard to determine since they have never experienced sight. How do you explain?

I have an answer: it was the fruit. Originally the color was just called “yellow red”, or “red yellow”. The fruit came before the color orange.

Back in the early nights I spent a lot of internet time on a website called " The Straight Dope". People would ask the most ridiculous questions and the author(s) would reply honestly (albeit sarcastically). It was awesome.
My favourite question, which I still think about regularly, was "If the entire population of China were to jump off of chairs simultaneously, would the impact be enough to throw the earth off its axis?". Short answer: No. Sadly.
