My Bag
The term “my bag” was common from 1930 to about 1995. It means “my mistake, my fault, my apologies”. The popular term my bad is actually a 1980s mispronunciation of the term “my bag”. “My bag” was a phrase used when playing a game of spades. In the game, you would have to for-tell how many "books" or hands you would take. If you went over that number it was called a "bag". If you were playing with a partner it was a courtesy to claim your mistake by saying "My Bag". Spades came out of the Midwestern United States in the late 1930s. It was said to have been invented by college students who enjoyed both Whist and Bridge. They were looking for a fast-paced game that was competitive and strategic. The game slowly spread to other college campuses. It didn't really take off until WWII brought so much of America's youth into the military. Because the game was portable, could be played by small groups, and could often be played in less than twenty minutes, its popularity mushroomed. You can still find the game online. “My Bag” meaning “My Mistake” should not be confused with “Not My Bag.” meaning “Not My Thing.” or “What's Your Bag?” meaning “What's Your Problem?” When I was in high-school in the 70s “my bag” meaning “my fault” was very common. Even though “my bad” is said to have come out in the 80s I had never heard it until sometime around 2008 or so. I can't recall the last time I heard the term “My bag”.
The Urban Dictionary Mug
Great idea to be able to offer this quality mug. I wish it would have come with the full text including examples listed on Urban Dictionary but I do love the mug. Just bought my 2nd one. Packaging is duarable and perfect for rough transit.
¡Soy profesora de español y lo voy a usar en mi clase en la universidad!
I wish the text on the back wasn’t so small—if I had to order it over again I would’ve inquired as to whether the words could be enlarged so it filled up more of the “white space” on the back
You guys are fantastic! Will continue to do business with you. Thank you so very much.
Now I have a UD mug! Good quality, nice printing, great definition!
Your company did an excellent job with our order. The beautiful mug with our son's word and definitions arrived in perfect shape, thanks to your outstanding box design! I have never seen a box so cleverly made. I cannot bring myself to recycle it;). The mug will be enjoyed for years to come. Many Thanks, Deborah Crosley Holland and Michael Holland
Got this mug for my daughter and she was taken a back. I explained to her why it was funny, but she didn't seem to understand. Its been a few days since my daughter has talked to me. I'm positive she loves it! I'm hoping to hear from her soon :)
Arrived before my daughter’s birthday, which was good. Not chipped or cracked, so that was good, too. Ichabod Crane looked good on the ferra color.
Looks great. Made a cool gift. Quick shipping!
It holds liquid, very good
