Verb getting humbled: to take someone's blissful pride, self-centeredness, narcissism or ego down to a point where they realize they're not the *hot shit* or *alpha* they thought they were.
Often done in a polite way without involving physical or verbal aggression, and even less so, passive-aggressiveness.

humble beefs (noun)
Definition:
A mild or low-stakes dispute—petty drama that’s acknowledged with a wink, not a war. Usually involves light jabs, small disagreements, or playful rivalry where both sides keep it respectful. The “humble” part means the conflict is restrained, ironic, or self-aware.

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.
