Mexican Stand-Down

When two or more people are so courteous to one another, it becomes painful.

Particularly common with food at restaurants, or when opening doors for others.
"Parky, would you like this last dumpling?"
"No, please. You have it."
"Parky, I insist. Please eat it."
"I couldn't possibly take that last dumpling. Please, it's yours..."
Ad nauseam.
WAITER: "Welp! It looks like we've got ourselves a Mexican Stand-Down!"
