Is the glass half empty or half full?

After a lifetime of believing that the glass was half empty, I see that the glass is half full. It's all in perspective.

1. Depends

If it's filled with Scotch and water, it's always half empty. If it's filled with Michelob Ultra, it's half full.

Man, I'm loaded.

Kind Regards,
Matt

6. Newsman Matt, it's a bit early for the scotch and water.

Might want to wait a few hours on that.

Just a helpful suggestion.

4. It depends...

If the glass has alcohol in it then it's probably totally full.

If it has Mountain Dew in it then it's totally empty because I drank it all.

7. Its completely full

Its simply partially filled with fluid and partially filled with gas.

PS: Now the cynics point of view is its half full of poison.
