Get the Bpmug. "BPS" is another way to say shitty software system or that there is a glitch in a software system. A glitch that can't be tracked down and is the fault of some shitty software company but they will never admit that it was an issue. They will just tell you it fixed itself.
Gawddamnit! I was right in the middle of getting the payment in the system and then it totally went TU and BPS'd on me.

Refers to not completely thinking a plan through before putting it into action. Based on the many failed attempts by BP to cap the oil spill in the Gulf.
Man 1: Did you hear about that cap that was supposed to catch the oil in the Gulf.
Man 2: Yeah, I thought that was working, what happened?
Man 1: The cap wasn't big enough to hold all of the oil, so they need another new plan.
Man 2: Oh, another BP Moment.

Get the BP Momentmug. Third largest oil company in the world, by sales (behind Exxon Mobile and Royal Dutch Shell; in 2009, these were $246.1 billion.
BP is the largest oil and gas producer in the US.
Lessor of Deepwater Horizon offshore drilling platform in the Gulf of Mexico. On 20 April 2010, a fire and explosion on the Deepwater Horizon killed eleven crew members and was followed by a blowout, during which perhaps four million barrels of crude oil were poured into the ecologically sensitive area.
Company was founded in 1909 by William Knox D'Arcy as the Anglo-Persian Oil Company (APOC), and used its ties with the hapless Qejar Dynasty ruling Iran.
In 1925, Reza Khan (formerly an employee of APOC) had himself proclaimed Shah; his ascendancy from commoner to emperor was stimulated by Iran popular anger at the way APOC was pumping billions of pounds from Iran's land to the Exchequer of the UK, while a ridiculously small amount went to Iran itself. Shah Reza promised to revise the agreement with APOC, but after 7 years of negotiating with the company, got nothing more than a name change (to Anglo-Iranian).
In 1951, Prime Minister Muhammad Mussadegh nationalize the company's assets in Iran. On behalf of AIOC, MI-5 and the CIA staged a coup d'etat that ousted the democratically elected Prime Minister in favor of absolute dictatorship by the Shah (1953).

BP, p.l.c. chief executive Tony Hayward took a day off Saturday to see his 52-foot yacht "Bob" compete in a glitzy race off England's shore, a leisure trip that further infuriated residents of the oil-stained Gulf Coast.
