The Bathtub Admission Question

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?"

OBGYN Appt.

An elderly woman went to a scheduled ob-gyn appointment. While everything was normal, she mentioned to the doctor her husband was having a hard time getting an erection.

The doctor said "Just tell him to come in and I will prescribe him Viagra."

The woman said "Are you kidding me? I have a hard enough time getting that man to take a Tylenol during a headache- he hates pills!"

After thinking for a moment, the doctor told the woman he would prescribe her Viagra, and she should slip half a pill in his coffee every morning. He told her to come back in two weeks and let him know how everything is going.

The woman returned two weeks later.

"How did it go?" the doctor asked

"It was awful, just awful." The woman complained

"The sex was that bad?" the doctor asked, surprised

"No...the sex was great. He ripped my clothes off right after breakfast, swept everything off the table and had the best sex I have had in thirty years on that table."

"So what was the problem?" the doctor asked, perplexed.

"I will never be able to show my face in IHOP again!"

At a medical convention, a male doctor and a female doctor start eyeing each other. The male doctor asks her to dinner and she accepts. As they sit down at the restaurant, she excuses herself to go and wash her hands.

After dinner, one thing leads to another and they end up in her hotel bedroom. Just as things get hot, the female doctor interrupts and says she has to go and wash her hands. Once she comes back they go for it. Once they finish, she gets up and says she is going to wash her hands.

“Easy, you’re always washing your hands.”

She then says, “I bet you’re an anesthesiologist.”

Male doctor: “Wow, how did you guess?”
Female doctor: “I didn’t feel a thing.”
