Cold_Breadfruit_9794 on June 19, 2026 10:08 pm Moist is a terrible word. I’m upset. This is upsetting 
Low-Appointment-2906 on June 19, 2026 10:22 pm Why has no one asked this before? It’s literally such a good, pertinent question.
AStarkly on June 19, 2026 10:28 pm I’ve never consciously thought about it, but the vibe was something like a frog. Cool, and maybe slightly tacky with damp. ET always gave me the ick lol
