    No, it does not imply that it has fluid like properties. The sentence that I posted simply implies that there’s something different about it than a normal solid.

      I mean, there’s no real way for any of us to prove it will be interpreted one way or another, even if the rest of us are sure. So, in the name of not being a pedant, I guess you can see it that way.

      It’s not a “false solid”, which would be the antonym. Glass is not an ordinary solid, I guess that would be true.

        What is It with pedantry In this thread for real? So because I said true and not ordinary, everybody’s gonna take me to fucking task? This was supposed to just be a fun thread about interesting scientific facts. It is a scientific fact that glass is different than other solids, which is what I said. I’m not understanding why everybody has to be an asshole. But I’m fucking done with it.
