When I was in college I worked in the cafeteria food service to help pay my tuition. There were a lot old white ladies on the staff, but also several black cooks and dishwashers. One day one of the guys was teasing me as we were cleaning tables after the lunch rush/ He made a comment that started with "Girl... " I joked right back with a comment that started with "Boy..."

He gave me a sharp look and it was only then that I realized that as well as being the corresponding word to 'girl' it could also be taken as a racist thing (which was not at all my intentiion!) I was horrified, apologized profusely and awkwardly, but I am still horrified about it, even now, years later.
