What was that story about a frog which was slowly boiled in a pot and didn't know it about it until it was too late?

Oh the frog knows in our case, it knows perfectly well. But it's so nice and warm in the pot and freezing outside, plus it's sure that if it concentrates real hard it'll come up with a solution to being cooked alive while still being able to stay in the pot.

Funny how everyone always leaves out the part where in the original experiment, said frog's brain was removed before putting it in the pot :)

Maybe we can stretch the metaphor to a number of frogs in the pot, and the frogs need to work collectively to escape the pot. It is hotter in the middle of the pot, the frogs there are already in the panic, while the frogs at the sides are like "I sincerely hope you get the help you need. You dont have to feel like that."

Well that only makes it even more relevant.
