I'm not racist. I like a lot of things about other cultures. For example, I like
curry.

But now we have the recipe, do we really need them to stay?

I think you'll find we had the recipe before they arrived...

I think the *real* Native Americans probably said something like that
when those pesky English, French, Germans and Spaniards came over and
stayed too.

But when was the last time you enjoyed a Chinese or Indian from a
English owned restaurant?

Just like the Chinese chip shops, they have the recipe, but make crap
versions.

Actually, I've found British curries to be far superior to those offered
in India for the most part.

Your mum would say hi, but her mouth is full right now.

Meantime, someone has probably found the energy to trace you and report
your parents to their ISP.

You may want to read up on what "free speech" actually is.
Cluefest: it isn't the right to say absolutely whatever you like
whenever you like, to whomever you like.

That said, I have no problem with you showing that you're a racist,
sexist, homophobic **** with no sense of humour since it saves everyone
the trouble of working it out later.

Plus its worth considering that the more you post in this vein, the more
you're likely to annoy someone enough to trace you, report you to your
ISP and get you barred from the 'net.

I know an Indian chef who was born in Kenya who would dispute that hotly.

Curry is a British dish, created for them by and when India was a British
colony. There aren't any
so called "curries" in Indian cooking.

Yeah, you need a traditional English chippy, run by traditional English
Greeks.

Greeks, Italian... Even a Pakistani run chippy is far better than a
Chinese one.


Only decent food outlet run by an English person is the lay-by burger
van. :-)

And you were the one who complained about people not having a sense of
humour. Don't worry tho, I've archived your messages for future reference.

Let me get this right. You are saying there are no curries that have been
created by Indians for Indians?
I beg to differ and so would most Indians I know.
I've been taught my curry skills by Indians who do not seem to think that
they invented it for the Raj.
Curry goes back way longer than that.

In a sense, "curry", especially made from curry powder, was concocted
for the British and "curry" or "kari" is just a Hindi word for "gravy"
but there are uncountable dishes made from scratch in India that many
Westerners might call "curry" and they are delicious!

I hope the original was not a cross-posted troll but I have my
suspicions!
