40 Funny Photos That Show Us What Happens When Things Are Taken Too Literally

For those who are not too familiar, a pint of beer is a unit of measurement that tends to fill the average beer glass. For those who don’t want to do too much drinking, they’d ask for half a pint or a half-pint instead, which is typically served in a regular glass that is half full or a smaller (that is, shorter) glass.

This was a very intentional and creative choice straight from whoever was in charge of making the glasses, but there’s no denying that it is taking things a bit too literally. It makes serving an exact half-pint a lot easier when the glass is actually half of a regular one.
