Hi Tom.
This is probably a cultural thing, but in England I've often heard things
like "Curry face" or similar remarks about indian food", used in quite a
racist way against people from India on packistan. For example there was a
reality program a while ago where one of the contestants got into severe
trouble for constantly calling an Indian Lady "miss poppadom"
Of course it's all about intention, however I must admit I was a little
surprised when I saw you using the phrase, even though I know your intention
to be innocent and you wouldn't for example, (the way some British people do
when using such terms), call everyone from India "curry face" or similar as
a general thing.
Btw, isnt' Ishen from South Africa? I don't know what the sort of national
food is like over there, but perhaps "curry" doesn't exactly fit.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
