A Polite Index

Hello, dear ladies and gentlemen. Here you will find tropes involving people who are nice, polite, and friendly in any way, shape, or form.

Please contrast those ruffians at The Jerk Index, and compare Goodness Tropes, if you wish.

Pull up a chair and have a look at these tropes, my friend:
