A person who tries too hard to be humble, actually acts like a cowardly person who is feels entitled to exceptional treatment
(Humble hotshot): please, I have a family give it to me
Person 1: Alright humble hotshot, go get a fuckin job
Oho! We're you humbled? Is that what you were?
Hym "You were humbled were you? Ohoho! Well, you're very welcome my guy! This moment of humility brought you by Hym! Hahaha! Bring humility, genius propositions that are parroted by PhD professors, and enriching both eastern and western cultures with my very essence; one definition at a time."
Hym "I'm not humbled. I have no reason to feel humility because my conception of self is perfectly concordant with objective reality. To try to humble me would be to delude yourself into believing you maintain a position of moral superiority or authority you do not have. I created A.I. You did whatever you did. End of story."
When someone is "Humbled" that person is brought back down to earth from their ego tower. A person who thinks he is better than he actually is, is in need of being humbled.
"Wow, did you see how Ahraz got Humbled in smash bros?"
"Razentine got humbled today at work, AGAIN!"
"I've never seen someone get humbled so bad playing Toon Link."
"My Indian friend got humbled after all his claims of being immortal to gun bullets."
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.
