Internet Quote of the Day

Courtesy of Amazon.com Discussion, proving that people do not recognize a joke when they read it.

Title:

"Gift ideas for my 58 year old psychotherapist?"

Discussion Question:
“I was thinking a set of Batman pajamas. Or fire. I'm not sure which. Any ideas?”

Response:
“Your psychotherapist may not accept a gift from you. Or, she or he will accept the gift but make you discuss the thought process that drove your decision to buy it. You might not want to subject yourself...”

Retort:
“Of course he will accept the gift from me. I am his best friend in the entire world.”

That probably should have been the end of it, but there are 109 responses, many of them debating the ethics of putting your mental health practitioner in the position to have to accept or rebuff Batman pajamas, but mostly offering hilarious gift suggestions ranging from custom-stitched straight jackets to home-baked goods.
