Whilst on the www.ranzcp.com.au (the website Royal Australia & New Zealand College of Psychiatrists) I clicked on 'Ethics' link and it came up with 'Not Found'. (Winning entry in 1998 humor contest - Georgina Hill, Australia)

More bitter humor:

***

Fifty people chosen at random were shown the definition, expressed in lay terms, of a computing psychotic and asked what kind of professional that described. Over half thought the traits were those of a psychiatrist. Most of the remainder thought that the characteristics couldn't be traits of any professional.

***

As a young boy, he liked to torture insects and small animals. When he was a teenager, he enjoyed peeping in windows at stupid people in various states of undress. In college, he would become sexually involved with girls then jilt them for no reason at all. Near his senior year in college he became more depressed with his own lack of motivation and goals, so he decided to become a psych in order to understand his own behavior. After getting his license, he gave electroshock and drugs to depressed people who came to him for help. Finally, he understood that his own depression was only relieved when he recognized how superior he was to the average man.
