Well, it's not weird, it's rather just homophobic. It is good you have the reflection to ask this to yourself, but I mean, it should be obvious that using a minority as an insult or a derogatory term is extremely discriminating.
And I mean, you shouldn't just filter yourself when meeting new people. I honestly just think that you should reflect, and if you really agree with what using "gay" as a derogatory term implies: That gay people are something bad, so bad that you just use that in general as derogatory. And if you don't agree with that homophobic message, which I would think because of your post, you should realise that this is spreading a message you don't like and stop with it completely out of your authentic self.
