pwn/pwnd/wtfpwnd = you get the idea...

'Humble' is not a word you encounter much in real life, therfore I (quite understandably) took this at first to mean "In my honest opinion". I still use it in that sense, because there's rarely anything humble about people's opinions, and because I think it makes more sense.

Humble is a town Texas, don't pronounce the H.
