Sam Posted September 4, 2010 Author Share Posted September 4, 2010 If a half glass of water falls over in a forest does it make a sound? If no one is in the forest, and no one hears it, is it really a sound? 2257AD.TUMBLR.COM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iamdan Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 There are 3 glasses behind doors, 1 half full and 2 half empty, and you have to choose one. After choosing, a door is opened to reveal a half empty glass and you're given the option to change your choice between the other 2 doors. Should you do this?

Pirate_Felix Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 No because it doesnt matter which one you pick, its half empty anyway.

svs Posted September 4, 2010 Share Posted September 4, 2010 If you drink a full glass till the middle the glass is half empty.If you fill an empty glass till the middle it's half full.

Junkmutt Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Depends on how it got there. If a guy poured it then I would say "To the top please" while gesturing to the glass. If a good looking girl poured it I would say some corny line about a half glass and get the drink poured on me, then I would have an empty glass. But if I poured it myself I would wonder what was wrong with me and finish pouring it to the top. So I guess I would call it incomplete.

fakeitormakeit2 Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Half empty is a more logical assumption in terms of planning because I find it better to overshoot the negativity of a situation in preparation for the worst, that way you're prepared for the worst possible situation and in the greater chances that the situation isn't so bad it's a relief and pleasant surprise.

Dax Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Forget half full/half empty. By half, it has to be exactly half, even if it's off by one drop, it's something completely different, no? #KERR2016/17/18/19/20/21. #rpgformod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dupin Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Forget half full/half empty. By half, it has to be exactly half, even if it's off by one drop, it's something completely different, no?This is physically impossible. Not only would it be difficult, but liquids evaporate and glass warps. If the glass is half anything, you need to measure more accurately. The glass does not exist. Bickering and optimism are useless in a world of lies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doomy Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 In my opinion, if you are fulling the glass up and you only get to half way its half full, and if you have a full cup but drink half its then half empty. Anyway.. I'd say for me its half full. Doomy edit: I like sheep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D Jay99 Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Imagine saying that extra syllable when you dont have to :o And its not really about the syllable, in dutch its halfvol and halfleeg which is just as long, but the former is just easier to pronounce.
