what is the glass?

Yet.

I'm an optimist, I'd rather live life pleasantly versus negatively.
Even if life bites me hard in the ass I just grin and bare it, because I can't look at anything that's put behind me, only at the next things coming towards me, and if I focus too much on what's behind me I'll get hit by the next thing.

Besides, it makes my character grow, I really like how I've become. I wouldn't change any of the hardships that's molded me the way I am.

Well, I feel it necessary to post my personal motto. "Hope for the best, expect the worst, and NEVER EVER FORGET YOUR HELMET."

I love this gal! (+rep to anyone who knows the comic strip I'm referencing/parodying)

Uhmm...

There's a specific strip that copyrighted "I love this gal!"?

I've seen it in at least a dozen places.

The glass is half full of air, so am I an optimist or a pesimist?

I hate you so much. :roll: just to be a dick. Your an optimist.

The glass is liquid sand.

A glass with water in it is going to determine whether I'm positive or negative?

No thanks.

It's just a figure of speech.
You don't have to compare it to the glass, but would you find yourself looking more positively towards things in life of negatively?

im gonna say this you people can stop questioning why i asked you this i asked this because i wanted to know how many of you actualy look on the brighter side of life... or summin like that at least

What happens if the glass is overflowing, causing a big mess on the floor?

Another point to consider would be the content within the glass. Something appealing or something nasty?

I hate you so much... :roll:

Glass overflowing..."Your so optimistic and happy I doubt you have a central nervous system"

Contents of the glass: Doesn't matter, half full or half empty and your still an optimist of a pessimist.

Its fun taking jokes too literally.

Just trying to create another point of view. :D

The disaster of overflowing water doesn't exactly have anything to do with your view on the contents of the glass, in fact it doesn't even count as the content of the glass, since it only creates a mess on the surroundings of it.

And if you think about it, glasses always start out empty.

What does that tell us? A glass can never be filled more than it being empty, for example: Empty glass getting filled, and emptied again, makes two times empty and one time filled, so overall it's always more empty than full, no matter what you do.

You could start out with an empty glass and filling, for example (As long as it's <100%.), exactly 50% of it's content with water, sooner or later it's going to be more overall-empty since glass isn't 100% waterproof.

Though I better stop this now because I'm aiming directly at a never-ending loop. See how pessimistic I am? I don't even want to think about things due to fear they're getting worse.

You made my eyes cross and I passed out for a moment.

Great minds think alike.

I thought this topic was about the material that glass was made of.

What a disappointment.

Before the half empty or half full I always check to see whats in it.
Then how old it is.
Then whose it was.

.....I never really think about half empty or half full. I think, "Do I need a refill? Nah I'm good."

yup thats how i feel...

So if you have a glass of blood that you just stole from a ten year old child and you forgot to turn off the milking machine so he's bleeding on your floor would the glass be half full or half empty?

And they say girls are difficult :roll:
