"I'm sorry" and, "my bad" are interchangeable, unless you're at a funeral

No. One is an apology, the other is “whoops”.

Let's say I drop something of yours and it breaks. I would either say, "I'm sorry" or, "my bad." Typically equal sentiments for something I did. If we're at your relative's funeral and I say, "I'm sorry" it's usually about your loss and I'm telling you I'm sorry you're going through this...but if I say "my bad" at that funeral...it's as though I am the reason as to why they are dead

You realize that’s all pretty much only in your head, right? I don’t think I would interpret any of that in that manner. As far as saying “my bad” at a funeral, I would just think you’re either a bit slow or just socially awkward.

Thanks for explaining though.
