Is the glass half empty or half full? is a common expression, used rhetorically to indicate that a particular situation could be a cause for optimism (half full) or pessimism (half empty); or as a general litmus test to simply determine if an individual is an optimist or a pessimist. The purpose of the question is to demonstrate that the situation may be seen in different ways depending on one's point of view and that there may be opportunity in the situation as well as trouble.
This idiom is used to explain how people perceive on events and objects. Perception is unique to every individual and is simply one's interpretation of reality.
No, you cannot deposit only half of a check into your account. You must deposit the full amount of the check.
Yes. If you are in default the bank can refuse anything short of your full past due balance.
I was always told if you have AT LEAST half of a bill and it obvious what it is; the bank will replace it with a full one and they will take the half piece out of circulation. This is what they do here, of course, the highest I have ever taken in was a $20. My mom worked at a bank in another state & they also would "buy" the half bill for the full amount & take the piece back. Good luck, worth a try!A more-specific answer ...The Treasury requires that as much as 2/3 of the bill must be intact and at least one serial number must be visible in full, although exceptions can be made for unusual damage due to natural causes such as mildew or rodents.

You cannot "fill" to make anything "Full" unless you have an empty glass. knowing it was empty first, you could easily say its half empty. It was empty first.Ok now it has water in it. only half. it ain't half full unless it started full, then was emptied some. but you normally receive half of what youre looking for. Scientifically, its half empty.
If you are drinking from it its half empty, if you are pouring it, the glass is half full.

They are basically asking if someone is choosing to be an optimist or a pessimist. If a glass is half full there are 2 ways of seeing it; as being either half empty or half full. An optimist would view it as being half empty (THATS WRONG), but a pessimist would see it as being half full (OTHER WAY AROUND) so that they can have something to complain about. Asking if a glass is half empty or full is a test of your attitude and personality. If you answer the question with half empty that means you see things more negative. If you answer half full it says you look at things more positive. No answer is the right answer. If you want your answer to be half full when you believe it's half empty than you can't change your point of view. Stick with your original answer, no one will care. :0) DT Wrote: who ever wrote above made a mistake. Pessimist will view glass as half empty, Optimist would see it as Half Full as in almost full just a little more to go. Stuff in Quotations is MINE!
Half full. If you look at it as just a glass with water in it then that's what it is. If you put meaning into it then the glass will always be completely full. How full do you want your glass?
He could be either. This is the same kind of question as the half full/half empty glass. In truth, the glass is both half full and half empty.
