Empty vs Full

May 17, 2006 20:20


How much do I hate the Glass is half full/empty metaphor. I so utterly tired of the simple black and white way in which people like to sum things up. So next time someone pulls that sh*t out and tries to pass it off as some deep analysis of your psyche here's a few alternatives to throw at them to add a little colour to their thoughts, if only for a brief interlude:

1. Clearly it's twice as big as it needs to be.
2. It's not mine, what the f*ck do I care?
3. That's not what I ordered.
4. We're not in a vacuum, so it's bound to be completely full.
5. Thanks a lot, now I'm thirsty on top of everything else.
6. Just finish your drink and lets get going.
7. Both, moron.
8. Well, if you can't work it out for yourself, don't expect me help you.
9. Who cares, I've got bigger problems.
10. I don't know but if it's beer I'll have it.

Feel free to add some to the list.

In our next episode, things besides stones that you're probably better off not to tossing around inside glass houses...
