Also, a lot of my black friends call me big guy too, and not in the sarcastic way. Am I completely missing something here?
First hit on urbandictionary:
big guy 56 up, 9 down love it hate it
An informal way of greeting a man or boy. Usually it's friendly and complimentary.
It sometimes has a sarcastic tone, implying it's time to take him down a notch.
Hey there, big guy, you and me gonna drink some beers or what?
(sarcastic)
Hey big guy, watch where you put that thing.
I thought youd like that analogy, sport.
If the point wasnt clear... even non offensive words can offend people...so yes...the offensive ones certainly will.. and your N one, is without a doubt, and always will be one of them...except among friends, when nearly any word is not off limits, but can be used as a term of endearment, depending upon the friends of course.
I'm Spanking Monkey now....err...I mean I'm a Spanking Monkey now...that shoots milk Too much. I know.

They changed it to obese bastard in 1999 so as not to offend anyone, the same time as they changed mailman to carrier, paperboy to delivery person, et al.
