A dog and a frog, in a world where dogs and frogs can talk to each other, are drinking water. The dog looks at the frog and frowns, because, in this world, dogs can frown.
"You're drinking it wrong. You're not even drinking it."
The frog looks up, confused.
"You have to scoop it up with your tongue," the dog informs, his words mixed with faint condescension, like talking to a child.
"I can't do that," the frog contradicts.
"Yes, you can; you'll get more water better if you scoop it up with your tongue."
"But, it works best if I absorb it. With my skin," the frog explains.
The dog laughs. "No, it doesn't. I never get any water if I try to absorb it with my skin. Scoop it up with your tongue."
