Modesty is the art of enhancing your charm by pretending not to be aware of it.

His modesty is always on show
- "Coolness, ah yes, erm, well i think i had some, a while ago."

fake modesty

when people try to be modest and say they're not gonna do something well. and then they kick ass at it and won't accept compliments and continue to bash themselves.

Asian Guy: I can't really play this piece very well...
proceeds to play piece really well
Other Guy: Dude that was great!
Asian Guy: No it wasn't.
Other Guy: Your fake modesty annoys me. Shut up and take the compliment like a man.

modesto

A city in the central valley of California. Specifically, nor cal. Not the best to live, but definitely not the worst place to live either. The houses are too expensive, and the air pollution ranks among the worst in the nation. The population is generally diverse in this city of 200,000. Gained notoriety from the laci peterson case that occurred here. Also within the district of Gary Condit. Hometown of the famous director George Lucas. Has a decent nightlife scene in downtown. The local music scene is also very much alive. The word hella is used here often. Modesto is close to many popular destinations.

Modesto is hella better than Fresno.

Modest Boast

A Modest Boast is joking about how good, something about you or something owned by you is. Unlike real boasting a Modest Boast is used as a joke or comedy form to make people laugh.

1. "Haha! He is so funny."
"What's so funny about him bragging and boasting about his self?"
"Calm down dude, its just a Modest Boast."
