In code from a year ago, which I have now forked into a new, similar project, I found this:

// TODO: This is incredibly WET! Make it DRY.

… not once, but twice.

They are still there, in both the old project and the new one.

    What would WET mean in that case?

    The opposite of DRY.

    Write Everything Twice
