Transcript:
Croc 1: Hullooo, leetle Oreo tings. Welcome to you new house. Want see jacoosee? Saul: Oh, that would be great. Your jacuzzi is a giant glass of milk. Croc 1: Peese, Oreo. Take dip. The Penguins meet their adoptive parents
Didn’t have an Oreo for decades. Then I found Peanut Butter Oreos..Researchers now say that the brain reacts similarly after eating Oreos or doing hard drugs!
There would be two schools of thougth on that I’d think….Those who think the glass is half full and those who think its half empty..and,.Those who would complain that the polar bear didn’t displace the milk and raise its level….
The observation has been made that whether the glass is half full or half empty depends quite directly on whether one is pouring into it or drinking out of it. As for the related optimist/pessimist conjecture, an optimist thinks “this is the best of all possible worlds!” A pessimist is sure of it. Myself, I think I’ll have another Oreo™ cookie.
I know this is a Sheldon Cooper perspective, but a glass is always full, unless it is in a vacuum. This one is half full of milk, and half full of air.

Don’t worry, penguins, it’s easy to confuse the crocs; just ask them if the glass is half full or half empty.

Ask the croc if the milk is warm enough and ask the croc to test it. Turn the glass upside down.
