:::Pressurised water... If you have anything hose-like (or it's within range of one of those extensible tap-attachments) then gush water into it and anything not actually stuck to the glass (any really gloopy liquid - like a partly dried old smoothie left there too long that may need a bit of mechanical wiping too) gets diluted and pressured out. (...Onto the floor, unless you are prepared for that.) | :::Pressurised water...

:::A quick rub with a dishcloth can wick up most of what doesn't jump straight back out (you need a quick shut-off to the water supply, ideally, so it doesn't dribble-fill so much, anyway) and if it was hot enough then the last bits of dampness 'self dry'.

Some of the unpopularity probably comes from it being halfway off of the table, giving you the ever-present feeling that it might fall.

:For me, it'll give something like <code><nowiki>[[Special:Contributions/<<IP Address>>|<<IP Address>>]] <<Time>>, <<Date>> (UTC)</nowiki></code>. For someone with a user account active, it'll be <code><nowiki>[[User:<<Username>>|<<Username>>]] ([[User talk:<<Username>>|talk]]) <<Time>>, <<Date>> (UTC)</nowiki></code> ''unless'' you've messed with your personal profile settings. | :For me, it'll give something like <code><nowiki>[[Special:Contributions/<<IP Address>>|<<IP Address>>]] <<Time>>, <<Date>> (UTC)</nowiki></code>.

:It doesn't matter much. Best to still have Time and Date. And some form of your Username-related links... But just FYI.

Am I the only one who interpreted the glass being part of the edge of the table to mean that there is not actually a bottom to the glass? The tooltip text seems to suggest otherwise, but it is a humorous interpretation.

:Actually, it just looks more like a glass-topped table (a table with [https://www.egw.co.uk/products/6mm-rectangle-toughened-glass-rattan-table-topper a glass pane on top of its wooden/whatever surface]; acting to be more wipe-clean/protective, as well as aesthetic) than a table with a glass top (a glass pane as [https://www.dunelm.com/product/milan-oak-glass-top-coffee-table-1000108238 the entire surface span], held inside the legs-and-edges frame). That, or it ''is'' the latter but the angle of view and background makes the reflection off the surfaces overwhelmingly more dominant than the refracted view through both surfaces and towards(/from) the underside.

− | + | ;True, I suppose that is also another possibility. [[Special:Contributions/162.158.2.191|162.158.2.191]] 04:25, 30 June 2023 (UTC) | |
− | + | The caption states "glass top", so the pun on "table covered with a sheet of glass" and "table with a drinking glass on top" is explicit. Any [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milk_glass non-transparent] glass would satisfy the first condition (as would the case of a glass insert atop a non-glass surface, mentioned above), and would spare Randall the effort of trying to draw in that fourth table leg.
