Why?

Because of the same reason why most drink-makers contour their bottles with indentations. Because we're visual people who view the silhouette of the bottle and estimate how much product we're getting per dollar. When you look at an advertisement for this orange juice, you see a full glass- when you see an advertisement for McDonalds, they show you a tall, fresh burger instead of the flattened cow-offal-scrap-in-bread. When you see an advertisement for Coca-cola, they show the condensate literally sprayed all over the side of the glass.

Unfortunately, at a level you're not even aware of, the condensate carries the message that "Coca-cola is always cold". The burger carries the mesage that "McDonalds' burgers are large, satisfying, and fresh". The orange juice tells you "You're getting a fuckton of fresh (see the oranges in the background) orange juice."

This is everywhere. And the best advertisers in the world use it. Because it actually works, a lot better than you'd think.

Seems to be a common occurrence. People are not good at pouring.

I_PISS_FIRE · 2012-09-09T15:31:26+00:00

That is rather pour advertising.

mistaknowitall · 2012-09-09T09:09:57-07:00

or is it 2% empty?

if_i_ruled_the_world · 2012-09-09T09:36:43-07:00

And also with these ads, who the fuck wants oranges and orange juice at the same time??

spinozasrobot · 2012-09-09T09:59:51-07:00

Why can't I pour,

All this juice?

I don't get reposters, whats the point in karma if you don't earn it by something you came up by yourself

AnorexicBuddha · 2012-09-09T20:55:19+00:00

I remember this from the first 7 times it was reposted

You can never have enough Juice, baby.

I like KFC commercials. 8 piece bucket deal. The chicken is sticking out of the top of the bucket, so much so that if you move it, it will fall out. This picture of the bucket is taken after the people in the commercial have eaten.

Captain_Jake_K · 2012-09-09T10:29:02-07:00

Perfect. I actually cried.

Ffunny_frends · 2012-09-09T19:21:24+00:00

Thank fuck I'm not the only one. I get stressed thinking about the wasteful delicious mess that was made by that sonofabitch.

vchip · 2012-09-09T19:31:17+00:00

I like this. I would prefer if the wording was reversed (top line at the bottom, vice versa). Also, the swearing is totally unnecessary. The image says it all.

wittyrepartee · 2012-09-09T19:42:28+00:00

SHAMELESS REPOST!!

ryopas · 2012-09-09T19:49:54+00:00

Also, the glass is sweating, as if the cold drink has chilled the cup in a warm setting in the time the drink was poured.

Trolled1 · 2012-09-09T20:06:19+00:00

I haven't seen a commercial or picture anywhere in the past month that has a full glass and still pouring more. And trust me, I've been looking

irishdumpsterlove · 2012-09-09T20:42:13+00:00

First world problems "Hey ass hole! You gave me too much juice!"

"In other countries we say thank you"

Nan-in, a Japanese master during the Meiji era, received a university professor who came to inquire about Zen.

Nan-in served orange juice. He poured his visitor's cup full, and then kept on pouring.

The professor watched the overflow until he no longer could restrain himself. 'It is overfull. No more will go in!'

'Like this cup,' Nan-in said, 'you are full of your own opinions and speculations. How can I show you Tang unless you first kick in the glass?'

RyanDolan123 · 2012-09-10T02:48:45+00:00

Not only is this a blatant repost, but this was posted in r/funny instead of r/AdviceAnimals. Way to go, shithead.

appleofpine · 2012-09-09T07:42:26-07:00

They're obviously draining the glasses.

Alright, alright, let's stop posting this.
