"What gets wet when i= t dries?"
You used (get wet) to mention its state, to create a real conflict be= tween the words you would use (gets dry) instead of (dries)... a bit weak e= xplanation, I know, but that's what English allows me!
So, "Wha= t gets wet as it dries <something>" should mean that it takes th= e wetness out of something else, so I'd say that this isn't playing= with words but may well be a "Lojbanic puzzle"!
PS. I'm ignoring it's a known trick here ;-)
