The glass is half-what, bitch?!
In the interest of avoiding silly psychoanalyses based on mere semantics, I propose that the glass be said to be "half-empty" if at the halfway mark it is in the process of being emptied, and "half-full" if it is in the process of being filled.
That is: at V(t) = (1/2)*Vfull, if dV/dt < 0, then the glass should be said to be "half-empty;" if dV/dt > 0, then the glass should be said to be "half-full."

so if a half full glass of water is just sitting there on a table and its contents slowly evaporates, then is nature pessimistic by nature?
