Here is my position:
1) The individual in this scenario is standing outside the house.
2) The stones that break the house are stones thrown by other people back at the original thrower.
3) The purpose of the adage is this: don't criticize other for faults you also have (you live in a glass house), because they could just as easily criticize you (break your glass house).
And, for full disclosure and with a tip of the hat to Mr. Callahan, I provide the following link (begins at 2:45) : http://videyos.com/demetri-martin-findings/106/
I await a counterpoint.

I don't know if my opinion is valued here, but I'll stick my nose in anyway.
For me, one of the most important expects of this glass house thing is the location of the house.
Desert, rainforest, antartica?
