Forums → The Tavern → Half-Full or Half-Empty?

The fun part of all this debating, is that no matter how you put it, you're settling for half a glass of water.
I am gonna fill it all.
And then drink it.

The glass is half-empty.

Its easier for me to see the faults in something, than to see the greatness of something.

I use to be hopeful and optimistic, but now I'm more of a realist than a pessimist. =p

I say it's Half-Life (XD). But in all seriousness, the glass is 1) full of Piemonaid 2) a half of what the maximum is.

At 50% of its volume.

Actually though, I've always seen it as half-full. It just looks half-full.

Half empty.
Why would you fill it halfway and stop?

It's probably half-full (me), because by the time I got it, it was already half empty. (I'll get u for that one day, Sharon!)

i say half full when it is being filled
i say half empty when it is being emptied

How about.

"I only want half a glass of water"

I can't be bothered saying I want a half FULL glass of water.

...or the simpler option is to cut the glass in half. Then it is full.

I can't be bothered saying I want a half FULL glass of water.

I could be very perky and say that depends on if i was filling it or drinking it up

But at this right moment it's half empty for me.. I really don't feel well..

The glass is just a myth.

As some people have written, I usually follow the "expect the worst, hope for the best" thing. I change on what I am from time to time. I'm usually a pessimist when it comes to competition or if you're trying to do something that you could never do. I'm an optimist when I help friends and er... other stuff like that. But yeah, I could be a realist... nah.

Half-empty.I always think the worst thing will happen in every case scenario.

I believe you cannot be half-full or half-empty. It's just half-full and half-empty. :O!
