...you can never had enough padded cells.

Or canvas jackets with extra long sleeves.................

I mean, why do they call them "straightjackets" if they twist you into a pretzel shape?!

Well I think the correct spelling is straitjacket.  Not that strait makes much more sense than straight.  And welcome to the new guy.

Because you got to get 'straight' before you get out. Thirty Five years in Mental Health and never used straightjackets once. Nor Electric Shock. And never even seen either used actually. Though used cloth and leather restraints PLENTY. And Electro-Convulsive Therapy is common for treatment of depression now days. As a Psych. Nurse, nothing beats a good 'Roofie' to put somebody down when they need it.

You're quite right, but it is fun to wind the boss up now and again :-)
