It's Friday!!

Engineer: The glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

brandy606 · 2012-10-26T14:32:19+00:00

This still sounds like an optimistic view

MOVES_HYPHENS · 2012-10-26T15:37:53+00:00

If there's still room for vodka in your glass, you didn't pour enough vodka in the first place

Peteyjay · 2012-10-26T17:33:44+00:00

Here's the way I see it.

If you are starting with an empty vessel an add liquid to it reaching half way. It is then half full.

If the vessel starts full of liquid and is drained to half. It is half empty.

No more optimist / pessimist arguing now.

FaroutIGE · 2012-10-26T17:34:02+00:00

Add the word "only" to realize that this is actually backwards. "half" is a negative modifier.

The glass is ONLY half full < negative

The glass is ONLY half empty < positive

I TAKE THIS SHIT SERIOUSLY. PEOPLES LIVES ARE ON THE LINE.

DeathMetalGimli · 2012-10-26T18:38:22+00:00

Just throwing this out there but it's technically not pessimistic to say the glass is half empty and not optimistic to say the glass is half full. It would be pessimistic to say the glass is half full because you're saying it is half of what it could be and is therefore bad. An optimist should say it is half empty because you're then referencing the fact that it isn't empty, which is a good result

Albarufus · 2012-10-26T14:26:34+00:00

Again?

sirkarmalots · 2012-10-26T14:30:48+00:00

Since the specific gravity of beer is higher than vodka; liquor then beer you're in the clear.

laser_diarrhea · 2012-10-26T17:42:37+00:00

Not funny.

rabidcavy · 2012-10-26T17:07:50+00:00

Can't wait to see at least 5 people post this on FB.

sir_wooly_merkins · 2012-10-26T17:14:07+00:00

Glass completely full, with liquid & air.

hasdhjashbdhjasbdh · 2012-10-26T17:14:51+00:00

So optimist then..

peace_off · 2012-10-26T17:16:52+00:00

The question is not whether the glass is half full or half empty; it's whether you're going to drink what's in it or not. Because if you won't I will.

orthodoxrebel · 2012-10-26T17:26:56+00:00

Reminds me of this: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41C8QX4HPEL.jpg

Personally, I think the realist needs another, mostly empty beer next to it.Read after seeing image ^_^

blunt_person · 2012-10-26T17:27:55+00:00

Taking into account the height of the liquid, and the shape of the glass, I can affirm that this glass, is in fact, more than half empty.

LessThanHero42 · 2012-10-26T17:35:19+00:00

Extreme Pessimist: The atoms the comprise the liquid and the glass are 99.9% empty. Therefore the Glass is essentially empty.

BagOHammers · 2012-10-26T17:41:03+00:00

As my favorite redneck once told me, "Clear is queer... fuck vodka, drink whiskey."

GimmeSomeSugar · 2012-10-26T17:45:32+00:00

Liquid is occupying 50% of the interior volume of the glass.
But fluid is occupying 100% of the volume!

JimJonesIII · 2012-10-26T17:46:44+00:00

Relevant (and interesting) XKCD.

splice42 · 2012-10-26T17:47:01+00:00

 For I am a sinner in the hands of an angry god      
 Bloody Mary, full of vodka,     
 blessed are you among cocktails     
 Pray for me now and at the hour of my death    
 which I hope is soon    
 Amen

sharkbaby · 2012-10-26T18:00:16+00:00

I will steal this saying and use it whenever I can

Marrz · 2012-10-26T18:12:27+00:00

Engineer: The glass possesses twice the volume necessary to contain the liquid.

Killzonintaing · 2012-10-26T18:31:07+00:00

Stay away from my vodka! famous quote from a good friend.

CidO807 · 2012-10-26T18:58:20+00:00

As more alcohol is consumed, there is more room to add more alcohol. Win Win Win

TheSoundAurora · 2012-10-26T19:19:59+00:00

The glass is twice as tall as it should be.

Sageas · 2012-10-26T19:37:56+00:00

Protip: you're in a bar and the barman shortchanges you by not filling the beer to the top of the glass.

You: say, can you fit a shot of whiskey in there?

Barman: why of course sir.

You: well put some more fucking beer in there then!

Evil-Etho · 2012-10-26T19:39:15+00:00

When ever some one asks me this is respond with,

"Well am i removing the contents of adding more? If i'm adding then its half full, If i'm removing then its half empty."

So what does that make me? and Ideaimist?

troymckin · 2012-10-26T19:55:04+00:00

That glass isnt a cylinder. It is much more empty then it is full.

Drawtaru · 2012-10-26T20:00:39+00:00

My opinion is that if it's just been poured, it's half full; if you've just drank some, it's half empty.

AidenR90 · 2012-10-26T20:09:17+00:00

I'm an optimist, The glass is full, half liquid half air.

Aldesso · 2012-10-26T20:13:53+00:00

The Realist: I think this is diarrhea in a glass.

aznboi0204 · 2012-10-26T20:13:54+00:00

Revolutionist view ftw

signspam · 2012-10-26T20:17:54+00:00

I must know if the glass was filled to this level, or emptied to this level before I make an answer....

MrWalter · 2012-10-26T20:35:22+00:00

Am I the only one that would call it "half a glass"?

Pheorach · 2012-10-26T20:37:50+00:00

It's too bad I don't like bloody marys.

SenorSpicyBeans · 2012-10-26T20:47:46+00:00

rongkongcoma · 2012-10-26T20:54:30+00:00

IMO: if you pour something in it, it will be half full and if you take something out of it it will be half empty. Depends on what happened with it before.

CommandoBday · 2012-10-26T20:56:31+00:00

I've commented on this before. Wouldn't the most logical answer be that the glass is BOTH half full and half empty? One cannot be only a single half.

ausbaus · 2012-10-26T21:13:05+00:00

Australian: its Saturday!

Nitzi · 2012-10-26T21:21:38+00:00

Realist: There is red piss in my glass, now I have to drink out of the vodka bottle

Jackmangold · 2012-10-26T21:23:16+00:00

This is like one of those cheesy signs that moms buy at tourist shops

sl4y4 · 2012-10-26T22:20:32+00:00

For those of us working all weekend, there is no glass.

grammar_soviet · 2012-10-26T22:23:22+00:00

Pessimist: The glass is half empty.

Optimist: The glass is half full.

Opportunist: While you two were arguing about the glass I drank it.

unpredictableSOUP · 2012-10-26T22:32:19+00:00

You're drunkamistic

ColeSloth · 2012-10-26T23:09:46+00:00

If the glass started filled to the top, than it's half empty. If it was filled to half way, than it's half full. No matter what it is, there's always room for vodka.

Brucenotsomighty · 2012-10-26T23:09:46+00:00

SO MANY REPOSTS FROM IFUNNY GET A TON OF KARMA HERE. I DONT GET IT

ChipEvans · 2012-10-26T23:18:37+00:00

Just for the record: I'm stealing this and calling it my own.

digitality · 2012-10-26T23:24:54+00:00

Quick, drink it - it's fucking evaporating!

Banana_Gun999 · 2012-10-26T23:58:21+00:00

it all depends on if you fill it half way or drink half of it.

Robeleader · 2012-10-27T00:24:24+00:00

I'll tell you this. At this moment, I'm on beer 4. This is out of a case of Stella that was put in a lab 4-5 months ago that people forgot about. My company used to do "beer friday" but recently that hasn't been happening.

Anyway. The thing about old Stella is that it's horrible. What I'm doing is filling a mug with ice and pouring the beer in there. That way I can't taste the skunk.

I hate everyone. Not you though, you're cool.

Legobeach · 2012-10-27T01:29:26+00:00

Heard that in the voice of Marshmellow from Annoying Orange.

greekguy69 · 2012-10-27T02:18:49+00:00

there's always room for more vodka!

Kineticmenace12 · 2012-10-27T05:06:21+00:00

If I'm emptying something I say "it's half empty" if I'm filling it I say "it's half full"

Patron_St_of_Liars · 2012-10-26T14:32:29+00:00

Alcoholism level: Bloody Mary for breakfast when not hungover

trent6295 · 2012-10-26T19:02:42+00:00

You may have one up vote... No more... No less.... The number not being 0 or 2. But the number being 1 is right on.
