Neither, it evaporated. And isn't damnit spelled dammit, with 2 m's? ;)

You left out "I hope you die a slow, painful death."

Edit- Missed it by that much.

That option traditionally doesn't surface until the third poll about glasses.

The lower half voters sound to me like the people who think inside the box... believing what their eyes tell them. You're all mad... MAD! Hahahah! *coughs*

Anyway. Such an interesting question. I'll save my opinion until later [img]tongue.gif[/img]

"paimful", eh?

And no, not the way I spell "Damnit". I spell it with an "n". So there. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

May post that tomorrow ;) . The third poll, that is [img]tongue.gif[/img] "Which half of the glass is empty?" [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well, depends on what you are measuring. One half may be filled with water (or whatever you half-filled it with, assuming you DID in fact half-fill it), while the other half may be filled with air (or whatever other substance(s) may constitute the contents of the other half of the glass).

So, the glass is always full, it just depends on what particular substances you are looking for. Even if the glass were in a vacuum it would be filled with nothing... so to speak.

the poll seems to amaze me.. is there actually a possibility of the liquid in a glass which can be located on the top half? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Sure, if you have two liquids of varying densities. Like in some cocktails, y'know?

Or if you look at a wine glass, the lower half there isn't even hollowed out. It just constitutes the foot.
