Your glass, is it half empty or half full?

manveruppd · 14 Oct 2008 at 03:39

The real question is, if the glass is filled to 0.9r capacity, is it full?

Steeps · 14 Oct 2008 at 03:49

I don't really care how much is left in my glass, it's your round!

I'm not drinking fast enough

Going through a rough patch - Bereavement last month, will find myself redundant by the end of the week with no other job in sight, just got shot down from a job application process that took 6 months at the last hurdle. And yesterday was my birthday apparently. (I can count the cards on one hand).

Screw the damned glass and whoever it is that pours it.

Twice as big as it needs to be

You say it in relation to the way the contents are going. If there is more water going in, it's half full. If you're using the water, or drinking it for ex, then it's half empty.

Is the glass tapered? i.e. is the liquid level 50% of the height or is the liquid volume 50%?

I'd like to say full, but i'm likely more of a pessimist than an optimist.. so half empty

MookJong · 14 Oct 2008 at 09:31

Half full for sure!

Any time I'm feeling pessimistic I just think I could have been born one of the 2 Billion people living on a dollar a day. I have been very lucky indeed and it's an insult to those far worse off than myself for me to be moping around.

Hey!! I ordered a cheeseburger!

Don’t care, just fill it up.

In my opinion while it is being filled it is half full, while you are emptying it (drinking it) it is half empty.

This.

That and I tend to believe it's half empty, meaning there is more to come

I drink straight from the bottle.

The Dread Pirate · 14 Oct 2008 at 10:29

I hope for the best but experience has taught me expect the worst, So I'd Hope that the glass is half full but expect it to be half empty

Blue Cypher · 14 Oct 2008 at 10:36

Depends on the day, some days it feels half full, other days its half empty, but whats a guy to do?

Freefaller · 14 Oct 2008 at 10:36

If I drink from the glass it's half empty. If I fill it up it's half full.

Garp · 14 Oct 2008 at 10:40

I'm a cynical, pessimistic optimist.
The glass is half full, just.

I expect things to go well, just not that well, and am not surprised if they don't.

I'm almost exclusively a happy person.

I can get a bit bored/melancholic, but I'm never angry/depressed.

Adsta · 14 Oct 2008 at 10:52

twice as big as it needs to be.

Having said that i always question why its a glass, why not a jug or a bottle ?
