The Titanic

[xMosquitox]

The Titanic was sinking and there weren't enough lifeboats.
So the captain had to persuade male passengers to jump into the icy
water to make room for women and children.
To the British he said, "You must act like gentlemen." They jumped.
To the Americans he said, "You can be heroes." They complied.
To the Germans he said, "It's the rule." They obeyed.
To the Japanese he said," It's the consensus." They obliged.


Then came the Singaporean and they just weren't budging until he came
up with the appeal: "Free life jackets for those who jumped."
