The glass is 50% empty or full, but it is entirely made of glass so it is also 100% glass.

Dude, what? I’m either too high or not high enough for this one.

It’s also 50% air so therefore 100% full.

Either way there’s too much glass or not enough water.

The state of the glass is determined by its beginning state. If it was full and is now missing half, then it’s half empty. If it was empty and now it’s half full, then it’s half full. This can be a metaphor for life as well.

But the other half is now filled with air, so it’s still full of something.

That’s always my thought on the subject, the glass is completely full it’s just filled with different things

But which part of life contains life? The years you’ve got left to live or the years you’ve filled with life?

  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct
