My Bad - My bAD

[kalahari]

Cannot really make that link SandyRoe as 7 is Lunatic (mad). However 4 does talk about correction so you could be right. Too hazy for me though.

[shoota]

By turned in mad - you had to start with :-)

[kalahari]

Thanks for the Diazo everyone.
Shoota I can see My Bad but it doesn't make sense as an answer to me. Or am I looking for too much?!!

[Mamyalynne]

as shoota says

"I stand corrected" = My Bad

turn the word 'by' into the word 'mad'

[dr b]

'my bad' and 'i stand corrected' both mean "sorry, my mistake". BY reversed in MAD

[kalahari]

Thanks for the clarification on My Bad.

[sandyRoe]

My, 'my bed', was clearly wrong. My bad :-)
