What is a cup?

Really. Think about it. Can you define what a cup is? It's harder than you think.

Okay ATOT, what is a cup?

Think of counterexamples for your definition. For example, if you say a cup is 8 ounces, well then so is a giant syringe! We know a syringe is not a cup...

Try to come up with a definition that fits a cup and only a cup. If it's not a cup, it shouldn't fit the definition 😀

Counterexample: "A cup is something you drink out of." Well so is a bottle, so this isn't a valid definition.

We're talking about a drinking container, not the measurement or bra size.

I am waiting for the 2 girls first.
 
What kind of cup are you talking about?

Liquid measure?
Dry measure?
bra size measurement?
golf ball receptacle?
Container for coffee?

There are many things that are associated with "CUP." You need to be more precise in your request.
