In my glass, the scotch always seems to be gone before the ice melts.

with all that’s going on, my first thought was how similar this is to when Bill Clinton launched rocket attacks right after his semen was found on the blue dress.

only because in that pic it is not FLOATING, but rather suspended underneath.

No it won't.

Why does ice melting not change the water level in a container?

Not unless it’s suspended up by something else, like the bottom of the glass.

The level always went down when I drink scotch.

Sorry that’s not how this works. Ice floats b/c it expanded. Simple grade school science. The level of liquid will drop. Especially when the proper etiquette is exhibited and the scotch is consumed!

Only because the one cube is resting on the other.
If they’re both floating, the level will not rise.
