Its half a glass of [insert name of liquid here]

:p

EDIT: It posted twice.

EDIT (again): Also, it could depend on what mood you're in wether you perceive it as being either half empty, or half full.
i.e if you're in a good/optimistic mood you would say that it is half full etc.

    If it's booze, half empty. Everything else is full.

    A Pessimist is just an Optimist with experience.

    Drinking glasses are not made already filled with water. Therefor, if you fill the glass halfway, it's halfway full. If you take the glass fill it up and drink until there is half of the water left, then it is half empty.

    The glass is always half full technically speaking.


    You either have it half full of water.

    Or half full of nothing.


    But I tend to think I'm a half-full person!

    When you have something thats 50% gone, is it...

    Half-Empty Or Half Full

    Debate.



    There's nothing to debate about.
    If you say half empty your a pessimistic person
    If you say half full your an optimistic person



    I gotta agree with that one Travis ^_^ What does that make me?



    I was going to say the same thing.



    I have no idea, I'm pretty sure I do both lol, ill have to pay attention next time.



    OOOOOOOMG I MISS THESE PEOPLE

    Half empty. But only because half full sounds weird when said out loud. It's probably just me, though.

    Half empty. Definitely.

    There's too much crap going on in my life for it to be half full. It can't even be that much. It's probably less than half full.

    That and I dont think anyone can look at a glass of crap and say half full. Thats just.... too optimistic.

    Is the glass being too big a possibility?

    The "Half full=optimistic and half empty=pesimistic" statement is a fallacy.
    It's just in the middle of a process, and depending of the process one is the adequate.

    And if it's about wich point of view it's better, I think it's better watching how much is missing.
    It encourages you to try to fill it.

    If you say half empty your a pessimistic person
    If you say half full your an optimistic person


    That's supposed to be the mentality behind it, but really it doesn't work that way at all. Logically you may guess it will never fill up by itself and there is the chance it could evaporate in time so hell... if anything that glass is half EMPTY.

    edit: I just replied to a 4 year old post.
