I get an assortment of those. (Just got one this morning, in fact.) An employee on my building's front desk is Indian. I'm considering asking "Harry, how do you say 'Eat shit and die' in Hindi?" as a response for the next time.

(A while back, I overheard a Latino in NYC asking an Indian companion "How you say 'asshole' in Tamil?" I was tickled. Want to teach someone a foreign language? Start with the curses. )
