You ever think glass half full and half empty is kinda backwards

Half full is the pessimistic. Full is good. But it's only half full. You're being negative.
Half empty is the optimistic. Empty is bad. But it's only half empty. You're looking on the bright side.

I have a different take.
Objectively:
If the glass starts empty, and you are filling it up, but stop half way, it is half full. The target is to fill it up, and you are halfway to getting it full.
If the glass starts full, and you start drinking it or pouring it out, and it gets down to half, it is half empty. The target is to get it empty, and you are halfway to getting it empty.

I think your head is half empty/full.

An empty glass
That last cigarette
It's closing time
And I'm drunk again
Who remembers that old one?

So both are optimistic in a "Livin' on a Prayer" kind of way

optimistic is a euphemism for delusional

Neither pessimistic nor optimistic; but contextually objective.

No.
But I do believe it makes more sense to say you can’t eat your cake and have it too.

IT'S THE EXCEPTION THAT PROVES THE RULE
Posted on 2/23/24 at 3:45 pm to Gaggle
The right answer is it should always have something in it

It’s not that the glass is half full or empty, it’s that it’s twice too big.
Fortune cookie I got about a month ago.
