Get the Humblemug. Announcing that oneself is "humble" actually makes him/ her/ them less humble. The more that one self-proclaims "humility," the less humble that person is in reality. This is the essence of a "humble person," which is represented mathematically as follows:
Level of humble = 1 - self-proclaimed humble level
Level of humble = 1 - self-proclaimed humble level

Petty but Polite
A disagreement over trivial things, often couched in polite language.
Example: Arguing in the group chat about the “right” way to load the dishwasher, then ending with “lol all love.”
Friendly Fire
A rivalry between friends, often for comedic effect or inside-joke continuity.
Example: Trash-talking your friend’s favorite sports team while knowing they’ll roast you back.
Self-Deprecating Beef
When one party humorously picks a fight with themselves or admits their side is flawed.
Example: “I have humble beef with my own playlist for betraying me with a Nickelback track.”
Clout-Lite Drama
Internet spats staged for attention without actual malice—often subtle enough to fly under casual observers’ radar.
Example: Musicians throwing tiny shade at each other on Twitter so fans can “decode” it.
Petty Justice
Standing up for a principle in a way that’s obviously disproportionate to the stakes, but still kind of admirable.
Example: Leaving a Yelp review just to correct the spelling of “martini” on the menu.
