During a visit to the mental asylum, a visitor asked the Director what the criteria is that defines whether a patient should be institutionalized or not.
"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub with water, then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup, and a bucket to the patient and ask the patient to empty the water out of the tub."
Okay, here's your test:
1. Would you use the spoon?
2. Would you use the teacup?
3. Would you use the bucket?
"Oh, I understand," said the visitor. "A normal person would choose the bucket since it is larger than the teacup or spoon."
"No," answered the Director.
"A normal person would pull out the stopper."

Reminds me of when I tell people I am a realist.
An optimist says the glass is half full.
A pessimist says the glass is half empty.
A realist says you have the wrong size of glass.
And someone practical would first take a bath, recognizing the water and its purpose.
