I did answer my own opinion, if you ever read my post you'll notice I hardly read what others say and just post right away

Or... 3/4 full, or 5/6 full.

No then that'll be more then half-full or half-empty

The way I see it is:

full = 1
empty = 0

1/2 full = 1/2
1/2empty = 0/2

Since 1/2 is the maximum capacity of the glass, the glass is half full.

? I didn't change the equation, TimeParadoX, you did!

But anyway. Where is this glass? Now I need a drink...

I liked the Californian wine, and it was cheaper by the gallon.

Now, after reading all these replies, I'm not satisfied with my former answer.

I'd say the glass is half full.

Adding on to what I said before about the fractions, if the glass was full in the first place, a half empty glass would mean a half emptied glass meaning 1/2.

Does that make sense?

/head explodes

ohh boy this topic is going crazy, my head hurts not. = /

Why don't we all have a virtual drink together, give each other a virtual slap on the back for being such good chaps, empty the the glass and free up the bandwidth!

Seems like a good idea to me ,1/2 full is half empty aswell,half empty=1/2,0.5,50%,half full=1/2,0.5 and 50% so there.

The most important question is : Is might right ?

It's more than half full, since a glass is not normally filled to the rim. Spillage, you know.

Besides, I thought that the "most difficult question known to man" was, " what is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything". That answer has been set by default at "forty two".

I agree with hamas123

The most difficult question known to man is, "Does this make my rear end look fat?"

If my glass is half empty or half full, my answer is "Damn I need more Beer"

A yes answer could prove fatal given to a woman with PMS.

half full is being +ve
hald empty is being -ve
.
decide wat u want to be
.
to skip this trouble, just say "half"

don't drink half (pints), only full pints.
