Hi all,
Can we bring this topic to a close. We had an interesting conversation
about name calling, but it is really off topic for the list. Let's get
back on topic with gaming.
Thanks.

Hi Dark,
No, Ishan is from India not South Africa. In any case my intent was
not to say anything quite as insulting as Curry-Face which I have
heard before and know to be fairly insulting. Even if I hadn't heard
it before it would sound insulting just by the context.
However, speaking of
Hi Tom.
As I saidI am fully aware of your intention here which is okay, it's just I
was surprised sinse to me names like curry eater or something similar have
always been directed in a racist way towards indians, but as with a lot of
things it's about context. Yesterday for example my dad and
you sure about that, because in all the movies the British describers
refer fagots as cigarets. i wish you guys would actually use the
words that fit the definitions instead of making them up as you go.
That would make understanding much easier.

Hi Tim.
Your incorrect, the word for cigarettes is fags, f a g s, which in British
English is not the least related to the word faggot, anymore than the word
man is related to the word mantle.
the definitions have not changed and remain the same, it's just that

Dear Mr. Ward,
Don't you think that the phrase Curry muncher is a bit offensive?
According to Myth Information: A Compendium of 590 Popular

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
