HAHAHA! The Indians are so proud of their English speaking abilities. Their brains, however, don't work the way OURS do.
This is hilarious. We worked with many Indians when we worked for ARAMCO in the KSA. And those Indians were, supposedly, the brighter ones.
My brain works like that. Except I probably would have called the guy “X-eee” (rhymes with “sexy.”)
LOL! My former boss, who is an Indian lady, said when she was in jr. high, she wanted to be a newscaster and she bugged a friend who was a reporter for a tryout. The friend gave her some copy to read and my boss was doing well until she read “pharmaceutical” as pharmacutical. She was never able to live it down.
I had several Indian PhD types as professors in engineering school. My master’s adviser made me aware of the idea that with one in particular, it wasn’t so much the accent that was the problem in understanding him (though that was an issue), the way his mind worked was the bulk of the problem. Very smart guy, just difficult to understand.

Ah, the girl is being publicly reprimanded because it was intentional. Understand? Indians have been verbally sparring with the english far longer then Americans have is all. Taking the Micky is just a little more subtle when done by Indians. In china the number one is considered the leader number, so eleven is like saying leader leader. Calling their leader eleven is a verbal swipe at communism because their elites were called leaders and now they come to talk capitalism. But don’t let any of that slow you down sport.
