An American soldier, serving in World War II, had just returned from
several weeks of intense action on the German front lines. He had
finally been granted R&R and was on a train bound for London.
The train was very crowded, so the soldier walked the length of the
train, looking for an empty seat. The only unoccupied seat was
directly adjacent to a well dressed middle aged lady and was being
used by her little dog. The war weary soldier asked, "Please, ma'am,
may I sit in that seat?" The English woman looked down her nose at the
soldier, sniffed and said, "You Americans. You are such a rude class
of people. Can't you see my little Fifi is using that seat?"
The soldier walked away, determined to find a place to rest, but after
another trip down to the end of the train, found himself again facing
the woman with the dog. Again he asked, "Please, lady. May I sit
there? I'm very tired." The English woman wrinkled her nose and
snorted, "You Americans! Not only are you rude, you are also arrogant.
Imagine!"
The soldier didn't say anything else. He leaned over, picked up the
little dog, tossed it out the window of the train and sat down in the
empty seat. The woman shrieked and demanded that someone defend her
and chastise the soldier. An English gentleman sitting across the
aisle spoke up, "You know, sir, you Americans do seem to have a
penchant for doing the wrong thing. You eat holding the fork in the
wrong hand. You drive your autos on the wrong side of the road.
And now, sir, you've thrown the wrong bitch out of the window."
