Engineer: The glass is too big.
Engineer: that glass has a 2x safety factor
Twice as big as it needs to be.
Mechanic: The glass isn't broken.
I don't understand the line through optimist.
It's because it's a screenshot taken on a broken phone.
Amazing.
That's for the observant. Your glass is one dimensional.
All those glasses are two-dimensional.
I'm high.
The glass is full: half of it is air.
Which is precisely why you don't have a bunch of destroyed old tasting chips too.

Old tasting no. It's not the nitrogen that keeps them fresh, it's the lack of Oxygen. It will of course keep them from crumbling to pieces though and that's enough of a reason.
Or is it?
There's a practical reason chips bags are mostly air tho.
I recently saw a local brand of chips with the tagline "less air, more chips", and hey, there it is, capitalism at work. Competition happening.
Then I remembered that PepsiCo owns Frito-Lay and they are a huge conglomerate, so it doesn't matter what it says on the bag. And hey, there it is, capitalism also.
It's so you can enjoy more of the water in complete cubes rather than broken up into little shavings.
I hate it when my water breaks...
It's usually for a good reason though
Ok but why don't all chip bags have zip seals built into the bag?
Cost
Optimist: the glass is half full
Pessimist: the glass is half empty
