The Zen of Soaking

Not Soaked :.

A rival noticed a fellow student seated, meticulously cleaning his soaker on his lap, having emptied the soaker into a plastic bowl. The rival danced towards the other, saying, "See you can't soak me! Your soaker is empty! You can't soak me! Your soaker is empty!"

In an instant, the seated student picked up the water-filled bowl, splashing the taunting rival with it, then refocussed upon his cleaning.

Stunned, still a few feet away, the rival just stood there, dripping.

Without raising his head, the seated student said, "I suppose you are not soaked, then."
