I don't put all that much interpretation into a glass of water. :-)

6. Volume or weight? What's the specific density and atomic weight
of the contents? From how many perspectives may I analyse the glass and the contents? Is my opinion binding or will I need to seek consensus?

8. Neither.
The glass is twice as big as it needs to be. :D

(C'mon Beast Man, that's a *classic* engineer joke! ;))

9. As George Carlin Said....
Some see the glass as half empty - others as half-full. I see the glass as too big.

11. On a bad day, broken. And whatever was in it, spilled all over the floor.
Again, that's on a bad day.

On a good day, who needs a glass? I just stick my head under the spigot! :)

16. The glass is always completely full...
For THAT is the very nature of 'glass'-ness

Half of the glass contains water, half contains air; it is always FULL.

If it were full of NOTHING, what a remarkable FULLNESS that would be!

23. I don't
See it.

-7.50 prescription in both eyes. I'm blind as a bat without my contact lenses (or glasses). To me, the glass is half wall (or table, or whatever the glass is sitting closest to). }(
