Your answer... "this was on lighter side. No one really know what is curry.

simply combination of spices"

Sir..., you appear to be an Indian... yet, you take lightly when non-Indians make fun of Indians... calling names… 'Curry'... 'desi'... etc...

Sir..., Indian curry is not a simple combination of spices... as described by you...

Its cooking needs longer processes and expertise... it is impossible to cook a curry... if one does not have learnt cooking...

Not like cooking omelet...

Update 3:

See how Curries are cooked… Aren’t they yummy…???

They are tasty, rich, nutritious, expensive, harmless… What’s funny in curries…?

Update 4:

P K:

I agree with you...

Nevertheless, the most unfortunate fact is that, even we Indians ourselves support racist slurs... and calls other Indians names... like ABCD, Desi etc...

Affluent class, use to lookdown at the less fortunate masses. They even don’t spare their own clans…

We should better set our home in order, rather than blaming others…

Thanks for your answer…

    I suspect it is for the same reasons that people make fun of Australians about Vegemite, or British for Mushy Peas, or Americans for Fried Chicken.

    In short, it's a joke

    Well, a lot of people say that just to make fun of Indians for eating curry, and smelling, but anyway, if it is real, you can do the following: Take a really, really good shower when you have time, wash your whole body with soap for a really long time, and take a bubble bath or something. Then spray deodorant. Then brush your teeth like crazy. Get one of those Oral B electrical toothbrushes, and get the back, front, bottom, upper side of your teeth. Put toothpaste on a non-electrical toothbrush, and brush your tongue like crazy, until it's completely pink. Floss every single tooth. Then do a Listerine mouthwash for 30 seconds, and rinse your mouth with warm water, it will sting a little by the way, but that's because bacteria are being killed, and the ones that cause bad breath. Then, put moisturizing cream on your body. And the next time you play sports, and get all sweaty, you'll sweat out a lot of bad, and smelly chemicals out of your body, and after that do the routine above again, and hopefully the problem will be gone. Oh yeah, also make sure you wash your laundry in washer, and dryer, with good detergent, like Tile, or Arms and Hammer, and then put it in the dryer, then iron it, and then wear your clothes. EDIT: Also make sure you shower every single day in the morning, and eat curry on weekends, not school days.

    it is pure ignorance. some people only learn the bad stuff then repeat it because that is all they know. Classic example of looking like a stupid parrot.
