Who is the mad one?

During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director,

"What is the criteria that defines a patient that needs to be institutionalised?"

"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub, we offer a teaspoon, a teacup, and a bucket to the patient and ask the patient to empty the bathtub."

Oh, I see, that's pretty smart," said the visitor. "A normal person would choose the bucket as it is larger than the spoon or the teacup.. right?."


"No," answered the Director. "A normal person would pull the drain plug."


;-)


Gotcha....


Hey, my friend, I too flunked this test... but living, as we do, in this mad world, methinks all of us qualify to be institutionalised...
