Curry time

Curry - Is it offensive?

Amma said it was.
Me and my bro reckon not.
And now after Amma has
got ahang of the word,
she says its alright.
But my friend jumps suddenly.
She says the word is offensive.

What to do?
mayb it is, and we've just got used to it.
I remember when a dodgy bully said
to me at school
hey do u make curry at home
i thought he was mocking me
i told him curry isnt the only thing we make
but im nt to o sure
is referring to us as curries
merely just becos we cook curry
as fob would be merely refered to peeps
who got of the boat...
no i dont think so
both cases have a more deeper
steriotypical image attached
eg. i wouldnt sy every person
who got of a boat as a fob,
its only the peeps with annoying qualiities.
hmm but curry is jsut like asians
it just refers to a group o people
o another big doubt
how come indians and srilinakans and the bangladeshies
and the rest
never get called asians
we are asian 2 u knoe
As far as i know wiki
only recognises curry as in the spicy dishes
that outsiders have to much troubel distinguishing
there just not too smart enough
to tell the difference
between the
jeera and corriander and the lot
actualli i cant either
but that's why we use labels
whichever smart less boy discovered the curry term
its stuck and struck
and im pretty sure it was boy
its just the intiution
some boys just have too little sense
