    Depends if it had more or less water in before you asked the question than it does now.

    Half full glass of water is half full.
    Half full glass of beer is half empty.

    My glass is both 1/3rd full, and 3/4's empty. I dont understand the question.

    It is neither because there are H2O vapors in the top of glass which makes the glass full. (It never stated the temperature or state of mater or if someone took a leak near by and the particles floated into the glass)
