The guy who made himself famous for claiming he created EMAIL, Shiva Ayyadurai, has taken to suing various web sites, social media sites, and bloggers to shut down any contrary talk on the matter. On the surface the business model looks like it might be that of a classic copyright troll. However, given the targets and the backer, could it be the ultimate goal is simply to close down the coverage in general?

    Wanting to be Indian is worse than wanting to be Black. At least Blacks have rhythm and swagger. Indians have an unpleasant aroma so strong it could knock a buzzard off a shitwagon.

      Some of their women are pretty hot. But yea, they do smell and I can confirm their crotch also smells of curry which is fucking nasty. If you do manage to get one in bed, make sure she showers beforehand. It's their food that gives them that awful smell combined with a lack of personal hygiene (the FOB's are notorious for smelling like BO and curry which is gag inducing). Though, the Americanized ones are much cleaner, shave their pussy, and use deodorant. But they can still smell of the spices they eat but some actually avoid it to not smell. Tolerable, and eating them out is no problem.
