Was that a racial slur?

Minorities can use this statement to freak out their white friends by making them think that they are offending them. Best used whenever any terms containing colors that might relate to the person's skin color in anyway (brown, yellow, etc.) or if "White" is used to act like you are offended at the lack of equality.
White Guy: "Looks like it's going to be a white Christmas."
Asian Friend: "Was that a racial slur?"
White Guy: "Oh my god! I didn't mean it in an offensive way..."
Asian Friend: "Just screwing with you."
