There’s an old Bob Newhart (remember him?) sketch that has him playing a therapist that sits across a desk from a new patient. He tells her he will only need five minutes to fix her problems! As she unravels her mind, he listens carefully, asks a few questions to provoke thought, and then finally yells “stop it."
Most of her problems were textbook cases, and as he provided clear common sense, she became rattled. The scene ends with her yelling right back at him, and they both end up on even ground.
I suppose this is a joke?
