So I would suggest that for every “ridiculous, unhelpful comment by a therapist” that is offered up on this thread, each poster offers up five of the same that he/she has said to other people, including the T.

I think those comments are important though. It is amazing how one comment can really throw us when we are in therapy, and it is good to process through those. I suspect most of us here quite realize those comments are unusual (that's why they get our attention). It seems that everyone here has stayed pretty objective about that, and Mr. Burns clearly has a need to process through his frustration.
