Time to answer the age old question of Half-Full or Half-Empty?
Explain your answer.

Half-Full: Optimist.
Half-Empty: Pessimist.

This may not be true for you. It just increases your chances of being one or the other.

The expression that would actually best describe my attitude to life is "it could have more in it".

It depends if I'm filling it up or emptying it.

It is filled for an half of his capacity. Rational mind rock!

Well it depends on how i'm feeling if it is half full or half empty.. sometimes you can only see negative and sometimes i'm really overjoyed so it depends on that haha:P

lol when i was young (5 years) a woman asked me what the difference was, and i said: well mathematical there isn't any difference 8-) weird me haha

I'm a realist. It's half both. Heck yeah. Anyway, I see things how they are, although I do get depressed, which skews my opinion. I still say half both.

I really think of it both ways and don't differentiate between them.

If you start with a full glass then empty out half of it, I would call it half empty. But if you start with an empty glass and fill it halfway, I would call it half full.

So what am I?

So what am I?

A realist. I do the same, but on a shaky ground (like when I have no knowledge of the - history of the glass), I will assume it is half empty, because I am that negative. (and why would someone fill a glass half, and then let it be? Makes more sense someone has taken a sip from it already.)

I would answer with one word but that's spam so here is my long post.

Here is my one word answer:
Yes

Half-full; I'm a pessimist and I would slap anyone who says it is half-empty regardless of their outlook on life for the simple fact that they sound retarded.
