It made me laugh, anyway

From the Graudina's letters page today;

Seen on a van in east London: "J Patel, Plumbers. You've had the cowboys. Now try the Indians."

On daytime tv I saw some guests doing comedy slots. One guy (Indians) was very funny. His opening gambit was, "So I see you're outsourcing your comedy now." Anotherone that had me in stitches was "You complain we come over and steal your jobs. Hey, we can stay at home and steal your jobs."

LoL, that is good ... I just wonder if it would be deemed as politically incorrect if it wasn't done be an Asian plumber?
