nobody:
half full water bottle left behind on the floor of a public bus: *rolls around*
OP is an optimist
Not to be pedantic but it took me years to understand the optimist/pessimist divide via the halglass because i literally always considered it a factor of time/prior state rather than ‘outlook on the world’
If I fill a glass and drink half, that glass is half empty
If i only fill a glass halfway that glass is half full
Honestly that probably is important to the metaphor because if you have a full glass and half gets poured out you are going to have a different reaction then being served that way. Like one is “I was only provided with half” and one is “half was taken from me”.
who cares
what if the glass was a bong???
dude that would be fucking awesome
