I think I'm more of a "the glass is at 50%" type person. No reason to take a position. Besides the important thing isn't where it is but which direction it is heading. When seeing the importance of 50% the key thing to know is whether it was previously full or previously empty. Like a barometer the direction of movement is at least as important as the measurement at a specific moment in time.
I just tend to take things as they are without any particular spin, be it optimistic or pessimistic. Everything could be better or worse, it will get better or worse. Somebody's better is somebody else's worse. You take the good, you take the bad. And there you have the facts of life.
