Another way to say that you are sorry for making a mistake or doing something wrong even if you are making up for it or not.
People can say "my bad" if they knock over your drink by mistake and buy you another one to replace the drink that has been knocked over.
Or they can just say "my bad" and just walk away and act like it never happened.
Same scenario goes for people saying "I'm sorry and knocking over a drink by mistake."
For the wrong doing, a person can break your windows and later say "my bad" and replace your windows.
Also they can say "my bad" and never replace your windows.
Again..same scenario for people saying "I'm sorry" for breaking your windows.

I forgot to remove the safety catch before putting the gun against my own dumb-ass head and pulling the trigger. My bad
by Mike Tench November 16, 2010
My bad originally came from the term my bag.
This was a term used when playing a game of spades (a common jail house or hood game with cards) In the game you would have to fortell how many "books" or hands you would take. If you went over that number it was called a "bag". If you were playing with a partner, which was mostly common, it is considered a courtesy to claim your mistake by saing "My Bag" or get shot.... : ) your choice... anyway this carried out to the street and stupid beverly hills bitches misundertood the ghetto term and said "My Bad" and it stuck in mainstream pop culture.

In a game of spade, you called 5 out of 13 books and you get 6....
You say: Ahh shit dog, sorry, my bag.
Your partner says: Yea that's what I thought, get screwed the fuck on, and don't let it happen again.
Pop culture.... in comes the movie Clueless and the term My Bad is substituted and made popular.

I understand it to mean "error" or "screw-up" or "bad behavior". An abbreviated informal apology.
While some believe it to be a misinterpretation of the older phrase My Bag it is clearly it's own slang with its own origins and meaning.
