When you, usually consciously, try to get away with bragging about yourself by couching it in a phony show of humility. "Your inflatable inner-tube is way cooler than my 80-foot yacht. You get to be so much closer to the water and to nature. I envy you, I really do"
"Thanks, that means a lot. Another advantage of having an innertube is that I don't have to fucking humble brag all the time about having a yacht." |

A form self promotion where the promoter thinks he is, almost subliminally, bragging about himself in the context of a humble statement or complaint. Everyone listening thinks he a jackass. I am exhausted from my two week vacation to Hawaii. I need a vacation.
Nice Humble Brag, asshole. |

When you brag about something without even realizing it. Used in NCIS: LA Person 1: The referee tripped over my feet last night AT THE LAKERS GAME.
Person 2: Wow. Thanks for the Humble Brag. |
