Possessive adjective
I hate the expression “my bad” with a vengeance!
Where did it come from? A quick web search turned up a suggestion that it was coined by a basketball player about 20 years ago.
Recently this meme has become much more common via some unknown but virulent vector. I have heard a couple of people at work say it and now my son has started saying it a lot.
I react almost with convulsions when I hear it! It is so mistake!
I like using this expression when it feels appropriate which is not very often I must admit.
