You cannot call a Marine a jarhead anymore. They found out jars contain things!

Surely head shrink should be psychiatrist, not psychologist?

Wouldn't it work either way? They both deal with mental health issues.

Don't think so: I believe that a psychologist is someone who has studied psychology - they might not actually practice psychiatry, whereas a psychiatrist or psychotherapist is a practitioner.

Maybe the US and UK have different definitions, or maybe I'm just wrong.

I agree both should work. The technical distinction (in the US at least) is that psychiatrists are medical doctors who can prescribe drugs, while psychologists are more on the therapy side. I wasn't aware there was any such distinction with the slang term "shrink", though.

My mum (a psychotherapist) agrees with my definitions, but again it may be a difference between US and UK

I'm in the UK and I've always understood it the way sumokitty describes, psychiatrist has completed medical training with the GMC and can write prescriptions while a psychologist has not and can't. Psychotherapist is a different thing again, deals with therapeutic interventions but can have a background in either of the above.

Pretty sure you can call all three shrinks though if you want.

Psychiatrists have a doctorate in medicine, whereas a psychologist does not. Both can practice therapy, but the psychiatrist can prescribe drugs because they have a medical license. That is how it is in Canada, I believe.

The head gasket goes between the cylinder head and engine block, it's the metal part that houses the valves, injectors and spark plugs.

Why do people always insist these quizzes should accept answers that don't include the required word, it's senseless. (I'm an Aussie who got head gasket fwiw).

The character Robbie Gould in Dirty Dancing summed it up as, "Some people count, some people don't." There, now you don't have to read the book.

One of many ways to illustrate that character was an idiot was that ridiculous interpretation of the novel - the polar opposite of what it actually espoused.

I am not sad that the "The Fountainhead" is the least guessed. Obscurity is best when it comes to turgid nonsense Ayn Rand vomited onto the page.
