The Bathtub Test.
During a visit to a mental asylum, I 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 tea cup and a bucket to the patient and ask them to empty the bathtub"
"Oh, I see, So a normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the tea cup" I replied
"No", said the director, "A normal person would pull the plug, Do you want a bed near the window?" |
cant make out!
ReplyDeleteThis is hilarious! I think I failed the test! :-( When is visiting hours?:-)
DeleteI failed it too
DeleteI need a bed in a room with a view. Here comes another idiot.
DeleteI will bring my little yellow pills move over
DeleteHahaha that's a good one. The easiest way to empty the bath is to just pull the plug instead of leaveing yourself wake emptying it wit the bucket hahaha
ReplyDeleteI would definitely get locked up,lol... too funny
ReplyDeleteOh Christ Iam a patient now...
DeleteI think I GET I A NORMAL PERSON WOULD PULL THE BATHTUB PLG TO LET THE WATER OUT THE TUB
ReplyDeleteYou don't even get to pick your bed.
Deletethis is a belter,i'd definitely get locked up 4 this lol
ReplyDeleteI'll take a dive first. That way the water will be less to empty :)
ReplyDeleteHahaha cool....
ReplyDeleteIt just made me laugh! That don't happen often ...not no more.
ReplyDeleteWell... That hospital better get some rooms ready! There's a bunch of us, here...
ReplyDeleteI was going to test the water and if warm get in. Pull the plug later. Save me a room.
ReplyDeleteoh well i would like my bed near the window by the sea...lol...just wondering been doing this for ages once my kids finishes bathing at the tub why i failed with such a simple question???...maybe i am just a bit lunatic on the other side of me...lol
ReplyDeleteOmg this is soooo hilarious! I needed a good laugh XD
ReplyDeleteSign me in i picked the bucket lmao...
ReplyDeletesame here
ReplyDeleteI FAILED THE TEST!!!
ReplyDeleteI over analized..i usely carry my earl grey tea...so was going to make a cup of tea in teacup...unplug tub..flip bucket over to sit on and have some quiet time...
ReplyDeleteWell just don't put me in a room with some who scream all the time, and a room with good sunlight . There are plenty of other people who will need a room too . What time did you say visiting hours are.
ReplyDeleteGee I passed the test with flying colors, but last minute when he asked about a bed near the window, i was asking myself, how did he jump from the subject about the tub to the bed? I guess it means they think your going to fail it, so they ask where would you like to sleep? lol If your a lunatic, they shouldn't have you near the window, because you may be crazy enough to jump out. lol
ReplyDeleteI wood step out of the tub,say you do it .I am paying,you do it.
ReplyDeleteOMG, This is Hilarious,I need a Bed two,with a nice view please !!!! :-)
ReplyDeleteDUHHHHH!!!
ReplyDeleteOMG, This is really funny. Many of us out there in decent appearance are actually at large!
ReplyDeleteHaha i too failed in test..
ReplyDeleteVery funny! However, experienced as a peer advocate supporting those labeled as mentally ill, has taught me that it's that's easy to be locked up as one w/ MI. Needs to change. We are people too.
ReplyDeleteHow many teas spoons did you get. I counted a "zillion" ; )
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not...I thought why not use the plug...Holy cow!!! But it was good for a
ReplyDeletefew chuckles. At least I know I'm not quite ready for the funny farm yet. 66 years young and still counting!!

ReplyDeletelol
ReplyDeleteI always get the wimdow
ReplyDeleteI think I would have used the bucket
ReplyDeleteWouldn't not thinking you can pull the plug reveal that you are institutionalized already and need to become more free in thinking?
ReplyDeleteOH MY I FAILED. Well I just lost my better 1/2 this past Tuesday so my head is clouded. Not to mention most of the tubs I've seen for years now don't need a plug to fill it up. So does that mean I am safe? LOL
ReplyDeleteWhen are they coming to pick me up!!!
ReplyDeleteNot trying to be too politically correct, but that was kind of mean to say about the mentally ill.
ReplyDeleteWell I flew right over that cuckoos nest.....send the men in the white coats
ReplyDeleteNot to brag but im nit admitted. Ha. I got it right I pulled the plug! It was a trick to everyone. But I DID pull the plug. Sorry I wont be anyones room mate. Hehe
ReplyDeleteOops not*
DeleteThis really made me laugh and this does not happen very often, but I will take the bed near the window...Thank You
