A wet blanket is a better heat conductor than a dry blanket because water is more conductive than air. The moisture in the wet blanket helps to transfer heat more efficiently from the body to the blanket.
A person can sometimes be described as a wet blanket if they make it harder for others to have fun, socialize, or participate in a party, etc. I believe that the intended comparison is to the use of a wet blanket to put out a fire, as a person called a wet blanket can smother a social situation, although some believe that this is because a blanket which can keep you warm if it is dry, becomes very uncomfortable when it is wet.A wet blanket is uncomfortable to wrap up in - a person who is a "wet blanket" is someone who is not comfortable to be around. You would use this idiom to mean someone who puts a damper on the enjoyment of other people and makes a fun situation less fun.I invited Bill to the party, but he was a real wet blanket and made us all miserable with his complaining.A wet blanket is a party pooper, a fun killer: someone who destroys a festive or happy mood. Think of the way a watered-down blanket would smother a fire, and you'll get the idea behind the expression.When a person is like a wet blanket, he/she is someone who takes the fun out of a situation or activity, as by pessimism, demands, dullness, etc. (P.S. Pessimism means a general belief that bad things will happen.)A wet blanket is a person who isn't any fun. Just imagine if your blanket was wet, you really wouldn't enjoy that now would you.
No. In fact, a 'wet blanket' is a person who is just the opposite. That is, someone who seems to destroy fun times and good moods, whether on purpose, or unknowingly. They are usually as much 'fun' as cuddling-up with a wet blanket, hence the term.
The conversation was rather droll; she had the personality of a wet blanket.We were partying like rock stars until my Dad came home, what a wet blanket.
The term "wet blanket" describes a person who dampens the enthusiasm or enjoyment of others, often by being overly negative, critical, or disapproving. This metaphor suggests that just as a wet blanket can extinguish a fire, such a person can stifle fun or excitement in social situations. Essentially, a wet blanket tends to bring down the mood and may be seen as a killjoy.
No, you should not. Dry blanket only, as a wet blanket will trap hot steam very close to your airways, and burning your lungs will pretty much be fatal.
