..what?
your bad foot?
your bad ear?
your bad grammer?
MAKE IT STOP!
my bad.
oh sorry, my bad.
languages change and evolve with time, deal with it
'Go figure' from a grown man?! They need to be told, and in short shrift
I could care less.
Can you get, like, a chill pill or something?
that is so not funny
your bad ear?
your bad grammer?
Glass houses. HTH.
Like,whatever.
chillax
That phrase has been around since the 70's.
Almost as bad as "Heads up" which seems to be infiltrating the forum at a disturbing rate. As if I don't get enough of it from the wannabe yanks at work 😥
Urban: Ruder than apologizing, but with the same meaning: a flippant apology
IMO, the idiom has a nice subtlety and so is a welcome addition to the vernacular.
just as a little heads up, this looks like my bad, lets take it offline.
I love words and phrases like this. Its a handy way for individuals to announce to the world that they're a complete ****-wit, and not worth entering into conversation with.
When I'm running the planet, you will be able to announce that you've registered this by slapping whoever just uttered it with a wet fish.
Oh gawd. People grown old before their time complaining about something modern.
YET AGAIN.
Tedium tedium tedium.
dude calm down man

...the 70s.
Let's socialize this at a more convenient time. Maybe reach out to the person to discuss and personalize the solution.
[i]complaining about something modern.[/i]
It's "[i]modern[/i]" to want to be American?

Terminal English snobs whining about Americans.
Even more pathetic.
Whateva
my bad - origins from Shakespeare.
Amazeballs!

You're getting confused with 'modern' and 'stupid' again wopster. Stupidity is timeless 😉

Er, Americans don't need to want to be American...
It was OK used by adolescents in Buffy.
Forsooth.. It is indeed most vexating this undignified barbarian onslaught on my senses..
What does "my bad" mean and when is it used?
I quite like "my bad" - it's a pretty succinct but not grovelly way of confessing you've f****d-up. Why the horror? What classic English saying sums up the expression so well?
It means 'I made a mistake'.
Used as an apology by people who lack the grace or manners to say 'I'm sorry'.
Also used by people who think if they talk like an American they will eventually become one.
It's easier to say 'my bad' than 'sorry, that was my fault'
Cheers RS, now where did I leave my zimmer?

+1 I'm sure that the generation before most on here complained about the way that they used the language too.
Also used by people who think if they talk like an American they will eventually become one.
Is that a bit like caucasian youngsters who talk like Fitty Cent, commonly known as "whiggers" because they aspire to be ****s. Sorry, "Niggaz"?
So, you were just shouting bad words in the playground then?
Classy.
Shame, it's a good point.
It's all "jackshit" ... 😆

Was I? At least it gives you an opportunity to vent your boring, disguised tendency to racism.
At school in the '70s it was fashionable to talk like a cockney gangster. In retrospect a bunch of Welsh schoolboys all trying to sound like Michael Caine in Get Carter must have been pretty funny.
Would that make you Wockneys?
I thought this was Engrish, derived from a similar source to 'all our base are now belong to us'
How do I have a tendancy to racism?
Specifics would be nice.
And shall we continue this back on the other thread?
If it is, as some tedious weirdos [i]always[/i] say, the "evolution of language" (ha!), that doesn't mean it's not used by people COPYING AMERICANS. And it doesn't mean it's not bloody annoying.
I'm going to murder out my head later.
yes I'm dying my hair black.
