Only if they forget... in which case after a significant look they suddenly realise, get embarassed and go "oh yeah."

Entirely different, that's like black people calling eachother N(etc).
I have plenty of gay friends (I'm not).
Once you are sufficiently close friends with them, many seem to encourage you to make fun of their flaming gayness (in a joking way). I've seen it again and again in party situations, etc.
Ironically, its almost like if you refuse to joke with them about it, they almost consider you more of a prude and conservative about it all than someone that will let loose and joke about the reality of it.
Not all gays are like that, I guess. And I would caution one needs to know them fairly well, they already know you are okay with them being gay, etc.
Some of them like to joke about it.
