The Bathtub Test

During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked
the Director how do
you determine whether or not a patient should be
institutionalized.

"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub,
then we offer a
teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket to the patient and
ask him or her to empty
the bathtub."

"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal
person would use the
bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the
teacup."

"No." said the Director, "A normal person would pull
the plug. Do you want
a bed near the window?"
