Adding your two cents

To add your opinion in a discussion or a topic that's usually unrelated to you.

my two cents

An inconsequential opinion or comment given to another person on a particular topic. Not because it was warranted, but because the giver felt compelled to say it, regardless of its relevance.

Say two professors are in a deep discussion on Super String Theory, then a undergraduate student pipes in and says something just to be a part of the conversation, with out any real knowledge of the subject. That would be consider "throwing in your two cents."

a two cents plain

A two cents plain is a glass of seltzer water. During the Great Depression, one could get an egg cream for twenty-five cents (seltzer, chocolate syrup, and milk), a chocolate milk (milk and chocolate syrup) for a dime, a chocolate soda (seltzer and chocolate syrup) for a nickel, or plain seltzer water for two cents. Two cents plain.

I'll have an egg cream for my lovely date, and I'll take a two cents plain.

my two cents

Meaning

"I have just thrown in my opinion on racism/abortion/gun control/women's rights, there is a good chance you think it is biased, so when you tear it apart, please be kind, and don't go OTT, please!"

I'm pro life and choose to kill abortion doctors to save the lives of kids, so their mothers can hate and beat them. I think abortion is bad. That is my two cents.*
