How Full is the Glass?

How Full is the Glass?

Narrator: A glass filled with water rests upon a table.

Optimist: The glass is half full

Pessimist: The glass is half empty

Engineer: The glass is twice as large as it needs to be

Nihilist: There is no glass.

Solipsist: I am not thirsty.

Objectivist: The glass is filled with water. I am still not thirsty.

Fascist: Bring me the glass.

Communist: Bring me the glass and make a cup with your hands.

Socialist: There's enough water in this glass for everyone.

Anarchist: Break the glass.

America Circa 2007: Pour the water on the face of tied down suspects.

True Christian: (quietly bows head in prayer - water immediately changes into wine.) Thank you, Lord.

:huh: No one here thinks this was funny? I thought it was cute - especially the engineer one!

Maybe I should just go back to telling chicken jokes.

Bakershalfdozen: If one just poured liquid into the glass, it is half full because you are/were in the process of filling it. If one just took a drink, the glass is half empty because you are/were in the process of emptying it. No personality quirks necessary. :wink

Good 'ern!

Yep; that is my standard answer when someone asks me if I am a "half-full, half-empty" type of person. I try to be logical, well most of the time anyway. :Bleh

bzmomo6: Where's the ice cubes?

(then the glass would be "full")

pneu engine:::: Forget the glass; just give me the water. I'll pour it into my fuel tank. My big ol' Chevy Silverado will be happy for it. :clap:

The Optimist thinks that things can not get better than they are, and the Pessimist fears that the Optimist is right. :roll
