I almost died of mortification. Luckily, my boss didn't take it in a bad way, in fact, I'm not sure he heard me

What you said I wouldn't think would insult someone, it's just a figure of speech

I take it your boss is gay?

I use to have a friend that would go around saying "Thats so gay". We would often be in gay-friendly areas of town too.

Well I feel better today (you guys helped BIG TIME). At least I was telling her "Maybe YOU fat fingered that". That would have been 10x worse.

I do agree with you guys though, some people can be overly sensitive. I never purposely try to pick on people, most times it just comes out all wrong.
