The Bathtub Test


During a visit to the 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 teacup and a bucket to the patient and ask him or her to empty the bathtub.'


'Oh, I understand,' I said. 'A normal person would use the bucket because it's bigger than the spoon or the teacup.'

'No.' said the Director, 'A normal person would pull the plug. Do you want a bed near the window?'

Muy bien Tim but clearly not genuine as the dish-washing one has to be about 30 years old and I'd be amazed if many if any current 16-year olds had ever seen stair rods :)
 
Timsk, a lot of those answers sound like stuff kids would write just for a laugh if they don't know the answer. I remember a question i was given was 'Give 3 disadvantages of a floppy disc' - I answered 1) Limited storage space. 2) Access time is slow. 3) If Superman were to shine his laser eyes on it, it probably wouldn't survive. I got full marks for that question as I made the teacher smile whilst he was marking 60 identical papers, so it's worth a go!

Of course you could argue that students should know the answers to the above questions and not have to make stuff up!
 
Here is one worth repeating.

Little Johnny finds the question too hard - doesn't know the answer and writes "God only knows???"


Little Johnny gets his marked papers back with the comments - "God passed, you failed!!!" :LOL:
 
Q: Doctor, I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life.

Is this true?
A: Your heart only good for so many beats, and that it...don't waste on exercise. Everything wear out eventually. Speeding up heart not make you live longer;

It like saying you extend life of car by driving faster.

Want to live longer? Take nap.

Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?
A: You must grasp logistical efficiency.

What does cow eat? Hay and corn.

And what are these? Vegetables.

So steak nothing more than efficient mechanism delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken.

Beef also good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable).

And pork chop can give you 100% recommended daily allowance of vegetable product.

Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?
A: No, not at all. Wine made from fruit.

Brandy is distilled wine, that mean they take water out of fruity bit so you get even more of goodness that way.

Beer also made of grain. Bottom up!

Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?
A: Well, if you have body and you have fat, your ratio one to one.

If you have two bodies, your ratio two to one, etc.

Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a

regular exercise program?
A: Can't think of single one, sorry.

My philosophy is:

No pain...good!



Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?
A: YOU NO LISTENING!

Food are fried these day in vegetable oil. In fact, they permeated by it.

How could getting more vegetable be bad for you?!?

Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle?
A: Definitely not! When you exercise muscle, it get bigger.

You should only be doing sit-up if you want bigger stomach.

Q: Is chocolate bad for me?
A: Are you clazy?!? HEL-LO-O!!

Cocoa bean! Nother vegetable!

It best feel-good food around!

Q: Is swimming good for your figure?
A: If swimming good for your figure, explain Whale to me..

Q: Is getting in shape important for my lifestyle?
A: Hey! 'Round' a shape!

Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets.

And remember:

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO-HOO, what a ride!!"



AND.....

For those of you who watch what you eat,

here's the final word on nutrition and health.

It's a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting nutritional studies.

1. The Japanese eat very little fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

3. The Chinese drink very little red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beer and eat lots of sausages and fats
and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

CONCLUSION:

Eat and drink what you like.
Apparently Speaking English is what kills you.

This is true. Or as I have seen it put:

The cows that I eat eat grass so that I don't have to.
 
Men do remember anniversaries?

MEN DO REMEMBER ANNIVERSARIES?

A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband was not in their bed. She puts on her dressing gown and goes downstairs to look for him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a hot cup of coffee in front of him. He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee.

'What's the matter, dear?' she whispers as she steps into the room, 'Why are you down here at this time of night?'

The husband looks up from his coffee, 'I am just remembering when we first met 20 years ago and started dating. You were only 16. Do you remember back then?' he says solemnly.

The wife is touched to tears thinking that her husband is so caring, so sensitive. 'Yes, I do' she replies.

The husband pauses.. The words were not coming easily. 'Do you remember when your father caught us in the back seat of my car?'

'Yes, I remember!' said the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him.

The husband continues. 'Do you remember when he shoved the shotgun in my face and said, 'Either you marry my daughter, or I will send you to jail for 20 years?'

'I remember that too' she replies softly.

He wipes another tear from his cheek and says...
'I would have been released today.'

Two strangers are sitting in adjacent seats in an aeroplane. One
says to the other, a slinky blonde, "Let's talk. I hear that the flight will go faster if
you strike up a conversation with your fellow passenger." The gorgeous girl,
who had just opened a good book, closes it slowly, takes off her glasses
and asks, "What would you like to discuss?"

The guy says, "Oh, I don't know; how about High Finance ? thinking he might impress her "

She says, "OK, that could make for some pretty interesting
conversation. But let me ask you a question first: A horse, a cow,
and a deer all eat the same stuff, but the deer excretes pellets; the
cow, big cowpats; and the horse, clumps of dried grass. Why is that?"

The guy says, "I don't know."

"Oh? Well then, do you really think you're
qualified to discuss High Finance when you don't know sh1t?"
 
A blonde reports for her university final exam which consists of mainly true and false questions.

She takes her seat in the examination hall, stares at the question paper for five minutes, and then in a fit of inspiration takes her purse out, removes a coin and starts tossing the coin and marking the answer sheet: true for heads and false for tails.

Within thirty minutes she is all done, whereas the rest of the class is still working furiously.

During the last few minutes, she is seen desperately throwing the coin, swearing and sweating.

The moderator, alarmed, approaches her and asks what is happening.

"I finished the exam in a half hour," she replies. "Now I'm checking my answers."
 
Edward Heath on being asked why fellow Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher disliked him so much replied...

"I don't know. I am not a doctor." :LOL:
 
These are from a book called Disorder in the Court, and are things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and now published by court reporters - who had the torment of staying calm while these exchanges were actually taking place.

Can't think why lawyers get such huge fees !!

A couple made a deal that whoever died first would come back and inform the other of the afterlife. Their biggest fear was that there was no afterlife at all.

After a long life together, the husband was the first to die. True to his word, he made the first contact . . .

"Marion ... Marion "

"Is that you, Bob?"

"Yes, I've come back like we agreed."

"That's wonderful! What's it like?"

"Well, I get up in the morning, I have sex. I have breakfast and then it's off to the golf course .. I have sex again, bathe in the warm sun and then have s**e**x a couple of more times. Then I have lunch (you'd be proud - lots of greens) another romp around the golf course, then pretty much have sex the rest of the afternoon. After supper, it's back to golf course again. Then it's more sex until late at night. I catch some much needed sleep and then the next day it starts all over again"

"Oh, Bob you must be in Heaven!"

"Not exactly ... I'm a rabbit on a golf course in Shirehampton."
