SO fair ever time i go to a shop, it never fails some one turn it in another shop. why can't we all go Dixons , with out Fleming or Turing. I keep seeing anti Currys threads. do you all know what Currys is. Currys is not Dixons. in fact most Currys are in retail parks,shopping precincts,city centres and Liverpool. Has any one watched bug bunny(on the TVs at Currys). Being at Currys is not having sex with animal, it about RPGing a Human like animal. NOT every Currys shop assistant is having yiffs in SL. some RPG only. I yiff sometime , but i am not in to sex with animal, I am not in to beastly. SO come on can we all work together to bring back Dixons and stop this "Currys.digital" nonsense?

I'm gonna put this in Sandbox.. I think..

I would believe that this thread exists to poke fun at the poor grammar of the thread it's clearly based on, but the grammar used by the poster of this thread is easily as poor, so surely that can't be it. However, I would like to take this moment to point out that curry is actually very yummy.

I still believe that the main thing we've discovered here is that curry is tasty.

Mmm, chicken curry.  The big deal with curry's is that afterwards your house smells for a week.

I already knew that.  The main street in my town is something like 90% curry houses. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curry_Mile

Curriez R teh gayzorz.
But seriously...
In my experience, curries are generally nice, but their kinks are sick. I hate seeing a curry with a giant invisible willy walking around CurNation.
Ban teh curries.

Curry is like the KKK, they both burn things (wooden crosses / the taste buds on my tongue).

I love green curry.
@Jo
No, Jo. Curry doesn't burn at all. It's other spices added that do the burning.

What the hell are you doing in the South East then?! It's a well-known fact that the world's best curries are to be found right here in South Manchester.

Why do they call it Curry Mile? I thought you guys were into the Metric System.

It's a crazy mixed-up sort of a place. In schools, all they teach the kids is metric, they've standardised measures in shops so you go and buy "two-hundred and fifty grams of sausages" instead of "half a pound of sausages", but all the road signs are still in miles and not kilometres. I suppose it's just because of the huge bill they'd have to pay to change them all. It's quite nice living here - most evenings, the aroma of curry wafts down my road

But the BEST curry is actually Thai Green Curry, which is fairly difficult to locate in Rusholme.

The serious bit, I have to correct the orginal person who started this thread Currys is part of the Dixon Group of Companies. I work for one of their other retail companies. Dixons itself is disappearing off the high street and reappearing on the web.
The non-serious bit, you cannot beat a good curry and some of the best curries I've found have been in the Midlands, England, lol. we also have some fantastic Balti houses too.
And what people still use the Imperial system of measurements out there?

One thing that I really, really missed in the States was a proper curry. When I came back I went out for a curry several times a week, and ate with such relish that the proprietors were astounded. I explained my position and generally got a lot of sympathy. "England is the best place for curries," one chap told me (in an establishment on the Streatham High Road, can't remember the name but it was damn good).
It's a perk of past empire that citizens of the countries that your forefathers have taken over tend to often come back and provide you with excellent restaurants. For instance, the USA has far better and more common Japanese places than you find in England, outside of a small area of Soho anyway. I very much like Japanese food but, on balance, given the climate here, I'd rather have Indian. I mean, a curry goes with any weather, damp and drizzly or baking hot, like it is now.
*thinks about ordering a curry*

*thinks about ordering a curry* The one time I was in England I couldn't help but notice a very high population of Indians and Indian shops. Given that a lot of English food are bland when compared to most asian cuisines it would be logical that Indians doing business there will make their curries less spicy. That to me translates to a really delicious curry. The kind that appeals to those who are used to less spicy foods. On the flipside I sometimes miss a good fish-n-chips. It's very hard to find restaurants around my area that do it right. The last one I knew closed years ago.

That's being a little unfair on English fast food saying it is bland it has not always been like that as it's demise can be put down to certain American Fast Food Chains making in roads in the British Isles.
On top of which Curry itself is basically a British invention as it was originally made for Queen Victoria herself! I believe she used to like Indian Food as the Empress of India.
All I can say God Save Queen Victoria!
