An optimist will say the glass is half full. A pessimist will say the glass is half empty however a realist will say the cost of filling up the glass of water is definitely more than the last time. So are you a optimist, pessimist or realist :)

To silverback, yes you are pretending to be a smart *** and u definitely do not know the difference of psychology and philosophy which is very similar in nature actually.

I am an optimist realist. The glass is half full despite the fact that I paid more for that glass of water than I did yesterday.

Realist-optimist.
Realist because I can determine if the glass is truly half empty or half-full. Optimist because I know I can fill it up to the top either way.

The truth is...
The average person would say that the glass is half full.
A pessamist would not admit that they are.
I am a realist and an optimist.
I know what will probubly happen but I pray for the best and that is what I get.
I pay for the water, knowing that if I spill it the water will neither be half full or half empty.

Totally realist, the glass IS half full but it depends on the size of the glass and the purpose of the water. All things considered it is just that, some water that fills half of that particular container..

In a normal environment on Earth, the glass is completely full. Half of the volume is occupied by water while half of the volume is occupied by air. That is reality.

The glass is both half full and half empty. Both answers are correct. This is a philosophy room, not a psychology room. We talk about logic and reason in here, not optimism and pessimism. No offense intended. I apologize if I came across "smart a**. "

I beg to differ. The glass is full. It is half full of water and the other half is full of air.

Your question is misleading. My point of view depends on whether I'm standing over the glass and looking down upon the water's surface or holding the glass level to my eyes to discern clarity.
Either way, if a bug is floating in it I should be able to see it.
