During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the
director, "What is the criterion that defines a patient to
be institutionalized?"
"Well..." said the director, "we fill up a bathtub, and we
offer a teaspoon, a teacup, and a bucket to the patient and
ask him to empty the bathtub."
"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would
choose the bucket as it is larger than the spoon or the
teacup."
"Noooooooo!" answered the director. "A normal person would
pull the plug."
(You are not required to tell anyone how you would have done
on this test.)
