Engineer: The glass is twice as big as it needs to be.
Turns out it was FOOF.
Opportunistic Lab Intern:
“While you’re all debating if it’s half full or half empty I drank it. Now it’s empty.”
My mother in-law is a lab scientist. She says this is accurate.
You don’t even know the half of it
Realist: who’s cleaning all these glasses?
Fucking real
After a long romp, a fairly new g/f went into my kitchen, grabbed a 1 gal bottle of white vinegar from the fridge, poured herself a glass and tried to chugged it while I was still in bed recovering. -She had the nerve to think I tried to poison her (for half a minute)!
Read and use labels. lol
Loool, and do you keep sodium cyanide in your spice cabinet too?
Probably a good idea for the winter since fresh apricot seeds would be scarcer. j/k
I like to call the sodium cyanide in my lab Almond Joy
Ahh found that label!:
99.985% Pure.
Nitrogen (N₂): 39%
Oxygen (O₂): 10.5%
Argon (Ar): 0.465%
Carbon dioxide (CO₂): 0.02%
Water (H₂O): 50%
It’s not ‘is the glass half full or half empty’.
The question is ‘why is the glass?’
Once you know this, the first question is easy to answer.
That beaker does not look half full to me. Many like 1/3rd full, or at least somewhere between that and half full.
People who call themselves realist tend to be pessimists.
Realist: Guys, I think this is piss.
I keep piss bottles in my solvent cabinet
Literalist: The volume of the container is ~50% water.
There’s no approximation in literalism! If that glass isn’t a beaker, you find the nearest means to measure and.go to town. I’ll accept 1 thumb length of water to ait at 1 thumb length minus the thickness of a bank card and driver’s licence…
What’s in the uncharacterized volume?
