I'm refreshing this thread because I don't like the number 66. For some reason [probably religious leftovers] it seems bad to me.

That's bad 'bad', and not bad 'good'.

Someone who shall remain nameless in another thread on colloquialisms posted that he didn't like the term "My bad".

And that's kool and the gang and all that. It's all good. Everybody don't have to like every thing.

But, just for the record, I thought I would hip those not in the know to the fact that fact that "My bad" is contemporary hip-hop African American lingo for "My fault". If someone [in a certain age group and cultural group and setting] unintentionally does something to another person or to a group, in order to avert any repercussions, if he or she knows what's good for him or her, he or she better say "My bad" to that person or group. And hopefully the response is a slight but cool nod of the head, or some clipped statement like "Fine" or "No biggie" or "[It aint] No big deal" that signals that that potential crisis has passed.

So that's what I was going to write about...and I did. I hope you get my drift. But if you don't "My bad".
