I'm probably missing a meme, what's BP?
British Petroleum. The meme comes from the South Park episode lampooning the BP oil spill and BP's response to it. The meme is making fun of the fact that youtubers use the same non-apology whenever they're in trouble.
Winner
It's also lampooning the video LeBron James made when switching teams for the first time.

British Petroleum... You know the guys behind that huge oil spill several years back
British Petroleum. That bit is about the South Park episode which originated the meme rather than whatever Linus did (of which I'm also out of the loop)
British Petroleum, if I had to guess.
They were largely (if not entirely) responsible for the oil that leaked/spilled into the Gulf of Mexico.
They rebranded to "Byond Petroleum" during their greenwashing campanges but yea
BYOND as in Bring Your Own Natural Disaster?
Build your own
You sure it's not "Big Polluter" now?
I like to mock shitty rebrands and that one would actually be truethful! ;)
