"The British have a reputation for being excessively polite. A caricature version of this is available as a picture postcard on which twopictures illustrate allegedly incorrect and correct polite behaviour in aBritish context (Ford & Legon 2003; see also Wierzbicka 2006: 31). In thepicture illustrating the 'incorrect' behaviour, a man who is drowning shouts'Help!' but gets no more than a haughty shrug and a turned shoulder from apasser-by and his dog. In the opposite picture illustrating the 'correct'behaviour, the drowning man politely exclaims, 'Excuse me, Sir. I'm terribly sorry to bother you, but I wonder if you would mind helping me a moment, aslong as it's no trouble, of course.' In response, the passer-by immediatelycomes to the rescue with a life belt, and even his dog changes appearance, puts on a friendly face and wags its tail"--
