During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the director what criteria define whether a patient should be institutionalized. "Well," said the director, "we fill up a bathtub and offer the patient a teaspoon, a teacup and a bucket. Then we ask the patient to empty the bathtub."
Okay, here is your test:
1. Would you use the spoon?
2. Would you use the teacup?
3. Would you use the bucket?
"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would choose the bucket, as it is larger than the spoon or the cup."
"No!" answered the director. "A normal person would pull the plug."
