The Bathtub Test

[Sdiver]

During a visit to a mental asylum, I asked the director how do you determine whether or not a person is to be institutionalized or not.

"Well," said the director, "we fill up a bathtub and offer the patient a teaspoon, a tea cup, and a bucket and ask them to empty the bathtub."

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

"No," said the director. "A normal person would pull the plug."
