We all like jokes, humor and other funny stuff, so let's lighten things up a bit with a few laughs (or groans, as the case may be)!!

Sanity

Post by Sally »

During a visit to a mental institution, a visitor asked the Director, " What is the criteria you use to determine which defines whether a patient is to be institutionalised?"

The Director replied, " We fill a bathtub full of water, we then offer the patient a teaspoon, a tea cup and a bucket and ask them to empty the bath."

"Depending on how they empty the bath, we then make a decision as to their mental well being or not."


Scroll down for the answer.














"Oh I understand." said the visitor, " I'd think a normal person would use the bucket as it'd empty the bath quicker than the other two."

"Nooooooooooooo" answered the Director, " A normal person would pull the plug out"

(You're not required to tell ahyone how you did on this test.)
Watch nature, because it’s our greatest teacher, it moves and flows and moves on again. We can never be free until we disengage, so allow life to flow as you find it. The way it is, is the way it is.

Hi Sally,

I didn't get it. I thought I'd use the bucket first. Then the cup and then the spoon. Maybe by the time I started using the cup or the teaspoon I would have figured it out. :)

You got me! :)
