Sanity Test
During a visit to the mental asylum, a man asked the director, “How do you determine whether or not a patient should be institutionalized?” The director said, “Well, we fill up a bathtub. Then we offer the person a teaspoon, a teacup, and a bucket and ask them to empty the bathtub.” The man nodded, “Oh, I understand! A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup.” The director frowned and motioned to the orderlies, “No, a normal person would pull the bathtub drain plug. Do you want a bed near the window?”

LOL, I guess I'm fine. I was thinking "pull the bathtub drain plug" before even read the whole question.

Where was he going to empty the bucket? Lock that looney up!

@georgeschire I did the same George. I guess I'm not there yet. But that's debatable. 😂🤣🤪

Call me crazy but I would take my rubber ducky, which I am never without, out of my pocket then strip off and jump in. Why waste water?

@jack-dodds, at least that would be entertaining for the folks at the home show!

"Entertaining" can be a gray word JK. I do admit that the tub pre-entry might be a tad hard to stomach visually but the inevitable arrest brawl on the wet lino showroom floor could be memorable.

@perrone1 OMG Tony, you're living my dream......you bought the "Ride Em" Duckie!
Yeah Buddy. He was this year's winner in the Knoxville, TN Duck Race. Thousands of the little yellow fellows are dumped into the Tennessee River and float at their own pace. First one over the finish line wins a prize for the owner.

@perrone1 I think the sanity test comes at the end of the race and how they get them all out of the river.

I'll take a room with a view, thank you. Has nothing to do with draining bathtubs!
