Better push it back to 1600 hours. People need to beat traffic and such. Logistics must be considered.
I also need to swing by H-E-B and pick up some chips for the afterparty.

Be honest, he had to ask the bartender for a booster seat didn't he?

You nasty 
My "little" brother and I ran into him at the Fort Worth Stock yards before the Arky game in 2014.
No, he did not address either of us as "boy."

This should go without saying, but I forget we're in mixed company.

Back when I played ball, linemen came in 3 basic sizes
1 Fat
2 Way too fat
3 Damn Boy!
Now since we had black linemen and white linemen I am pretty sure my old coach was not being race specific. I also seem to remember him as a religious man because he sure used God's name a lot.

I don't see that as racist. Seemed playfully friendly in a silly poorly written colloquial Twitter sort of way.
I do disagree with some prior posts that "boy" can't be racist. I bet you I could use it in a really offensive way if so inclined.

I was in the presence of Ashley when she used this word and pronounced it incorrectly. It was shame and awe all mixed together in one indelible moment. Too bad I did not have a big : casty : back then to give her.

Misspelled and/or mispronounced words eat away at the soul.

Pretty much, then this happened and a new low was reached.
Some days, it just does not pay to get out of bed.

Shaun King is a white boy who plays a black man. He's fraud and a wannabe.

One could and certainly do/have used it racially. But, I think when used with tone it is insulting regardless of color when most people use it that way.
The intent is to make one feel inferior. It used to bug the shite out of me when men would use it directed toward me when I was younger, such as "listen up, boy; come here, boy: etc."
If a white man uses that tone toward a younger black man, regardless of intent, most will assume it had racial intent when it is just as likely the man was just being an arse. Either way, stupid to do. Shows immaturity in dealing with frustration and lack of situational awareness.
