“In my humble opinion” predates the internet, right?

Sounds like a civil servant phrase, totally

In my experience IMHO is often tweaked to IMNSHO for "in my not-so-humble opinion."
So would partisans on the "honest" side read IMNSHO as "in my not-so-honest opinion"?
I mean, WTF?

Look, I know! But I feel like I hear people actually SAY "in my honest opinion, blah blah blah" so I'd be inclined to believe that there's a reasonable chance many or most are in that camp. I could be way off.

people say "do you want my honest opinion?" but I have seldom heard "in my honest opinion"
― mh, Friday, 4 May 2018 18:17 (eight years ago)
Yeah that and “I’ll give you my honest opinion” are constructions that people actually use, nobody says “in my honest opinion” reallyWhereas “in my humble opinion” as stated above was in common use pre-internet (WAY pre-internet would be my guess)

this doesn’t annoy me but since everyone’s here i have a question: why ‘latinx’ instead of just ‘latin’?
― mookieproof, Saturday, 5 May 2018 08:27 (eight years ago)
Because it’s non-gender specific and ‘latin’ as adjective has a wider remit than describing people. Also, this is the descriptor Latinx people they keep saying they prefer.

"Reaching out". What happened to just contacting or getting in touch with someone? Reaching out my arse, fucking hell what a precious pile of shite.
