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.

Remember that time your mom called you fat? Or that time your dad said you’re worthless? Its time for them to apologize! Only on December 31st!

Something Logan Paul said once....
...and got a lot of hate for it after a certain incident.
Pewdiepie reviewed this sometime not too long ago and said the steps to an apology “I’ve made a severe and continuous lapse of my judgment and I don’t expect to be forgiven I’m simply here to apologize

Cole apology

When someone disrespects you then quickly issues an apology out of fear before you can retaliate.

Apologize

Kissing Al Sharptons butt.
Hym “Oh.... Them I’m not sorry. If I can’t apologize for making Jordan feel bad then... I’m not sorry. I haven’t done anything wrong. All retaliation to imposed schizophrenia is justified. End of discussion. I’m not sorry nor will I ever be. And whether or not YOU’REsorry (For know that something is wrong and doing it anyway) is up to ME. So.... Hopefully I’m a merciful guy. You’re not, but I might be. Only time will tell. We’ll all find out together.”

Broken apology

A person who apologizes to you but later tries to justify their means (after they’ve already apologized.)
Not taking full accountability; an ungenuine apology.
Him: “I’m sorry I entertained other girls.”
*10 minutes later*
“Well you fucked that dude 2 years ago and I forgave you for it.”

Her: Your using the past in your favor to justify your actions!!! What a broken apology you just gave!!!
