The Tale of the Frog in the Kettle. Wikipedia says "The boiling frog is a fable describing a frog being slowly boiled alive.The premise is that if a frog is put suddenly into boiling water, it will jump out, but if the frog is put in tepid water which is then brought to a boil slowly, it will not perceive the danger and will be cooked to death.
