What makes someone's opinion humble, anyway?

Heh, if I overanalyze this, a humble opinion is an oxymoron. An opinion means that you take a stance of having enough knowledge of some subject or concept to formulate a personal view. And there's nothing humble about that. Heh. Which, by the way, is a good thing. I like a bit of arrogance, a bit of self-assuredness, and I cannot stand self-abasement/effacement.

Right, so it should be, "in my confident opinion..." or something of that nature.

Right, but who in their right mind in our society would actually admit to being confident? Then they'll just get called arrogant.

heheh. There is no easy way out of this one other than not having an opinion or not expressing one ;)

I'm off work, have a fabulous weekend! cheers.
