UK Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I know very well this was a popular poll on Wii vote channel, but I was wondering- what do you say? It would be interesting to know. I say half full, because to me, that makes more sense. What do you say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Stefkov Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Depends how I feel. (Another optimist/pessimist poll?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Half empty for me. But it depends: If someone is drinking it, then it is emptying so therefore half empty. However if someone is filling it then it is becoming full so half full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cube Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 If it's in the process of getting emptied, half empty. If it's in the process of getting filled up, half full. It depends on the situation. If I don't know if it's in pre process of getting filled or emptied, I guess what is the most logical assumption. So, I say both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.X Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Basically neither, I'm an optimistic pessimist(sp??). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorty Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I say: A volume of 50% of the total available capacity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCK Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 It's not even a competition. It's half full. Half empty doesn't even make sense, the point is there's stuff in it. A glass is empty all the time, why would you even refer to it as partly empty when it's not empty? It's a fact dammit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paj! Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 Yeah it depends. If someone has drunk half, then it's half empty, and if its only been filled to half way, its half full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginger_Chris Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 As a physicist my answer would be: the glass contains exactly 50% of its maximum capacity. And anyway, no-one really cares about the glass, its all about the liquid. I'd prefer to say there's x ml of liquid, because both 50% and half empty/full both mean absolutely nothing without further information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEVILMURRAY Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I normally say half full, but that doesn't stop me from being a negative bastard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fish Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 The reason this question came about is about how you optimistic you are half empty = pesimist half full = optimist. Not necessarily: it also depends what is in the cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
