Whenever a cartoon character falls, jumps or is pushed into water, they get right back out without any visible signs of wetness. Often the character will be fully immersed underwater — and their clothes will remain pristine and flowing. They don't need to change their clothes, nor dry themselves with a towel, nor do they seem the least bit uncomfortable in what should be sopping wet clothing. In Real Life, clothing generally tends to be very heavy, cumbersome and uncomfortable when it's wet. Compare with Water Is Air. Examples of Water Is Dry include:

In Real Life, clothing generally tends to be very heavy, cumbersome and uncomfortable when it's wet. The character's hair will usually also be completely, unrealistically dry. Many readers will be quite familiar with the fact that even the lightest rain can completely ruin a style and turn it into a frizzy mess. Compare with Water Is Air. Examples of Water Is Dry include:
