Another Indian here who is tired of Apu jokes. I didn't even grow up in America, but it's irritating when your coworkers think that they are meaningfully connecting with you based on what they "learned" from some hackneyed stereotype in a mildly funny adult cartoon. Doubly so when that coworker happens to be in a management position above you. My advice: if you have a South Asian coworker, put away the Apu jokes unless they like it and bring it up for some reason.
