adpology

An apology offered by a brand or its ad agency after their ad badly backfires and messes up their reputation.

Remember the recent iPad Pro ad? Apple just made an adpology.

Cash Apology 

When your "parents" have deceived you and then realise that you will find out eventually, they set about buying you EVERYTHING so you wont hate them for what they've done from the age of 14. So you get a brand new motor cross bike, then a brand new helmet, and motorcross boots and gloves and goggles, and trips everywhere so you can ride. Then they buy you more motorbikes and more helmets and they make you the "Golden Child" so you refuse to hear the truth and hate them.

SInce Muzza's dad was told that junior didn't think he was his real dad, his parents have gone nuts and bought him everything he ever wanted. His fake grand parents are in on it too. They changed his birth certificate so he wouldn't find out. That's what you call a Cash Apology - and then some.

I owe you an apology. I was not familiar with your game 

A fraze once made popular by NBA Legend Shaquille O'Neil reacting to a surprisingly good performance by a current NBA Player that he never thought was able to put on the court, undermining his class up until this very point in time.

This term is now commonly used to describing a situation in which an individual (mostly male) acknowledges the fact that a (female) has been attractive and he just never noticed or was blind to this fact for other reasons, leading him to apologize using the infamous inside joke.

1. Shaq: Christian Wood I wan't to apologize, I wasn't familiar with your game and-
Wood: Aw man, you're a casual!

2. Dude: Gyatt, Sandra that booty phaaat. You been hitting the Gym lately?
Sandra: What? My booty been fat ever since, where have you been?

Dude: Oh okay, I see you now though. I owe you an apology. I was not familiar with your game.

Notes app apology 

An apology that a person (mostly influencers and celebrities) type out on the notes app (more particularly the notes app on an iPhone). They are usually a quick apology so the writer can do damage control if that celebrity or influencer gets canceled or called out for something that is usually controversial. It’s hard to tell if a notes app apology is sincere since they can constructed by ones management, publicist or team. They are commonly uploaded to social media sites such as Twitter and Instagram.

Person: Omg gurl look! James Charles got canceled yet AGAIN!
Person #2: Yes gurlll I also saw that half assed Notes app apology he put out on his Instagram. I’m disgusted.

fruit cup apology 

when someone has frequent and unjustified angry outburst but upon the realization they have no friends left they hand out fruit cups instead of apologies this is done because they don't believe they have done anything wrong but they still need people on their side

Janice acted like a crazy bitch yesterday and thinks this fruit cup will make up for it.. I'll accept the fruit cup apology just because the drama otherwise would be exhausting
