Why do people say that? I'm guilty of it myself sometimes. It's stupid. Why do some people immediately jump on a point you make and remind you that you are not stating fact you are just giving your opinion and should make that clear?
If the post has your name on it whose f*cking opinion did they think it was?

I use it a lot - saves a lot of upset I think
I hate "just my opinion" though...it is too self self-deprecating and does annoy me
Oh and Prom, it is in my HONEST opinion...not humble
It's a way, when you're about to say something that you think is really going to piss off someone else to qualify it by reminding them that it's only your opinion and not necessarily the correct opinion that everyone should have.
Because on the internet if you can't reference a bonafide source then you need all sorts of mad disclaimers to show that your thoughts are your own and to prevent getting accused of speaking for the masses or majority. (Because doing something like that could mean getting burnt at the stake, in a digital way, natch).
There was a time on here when everyone was at the IMO gubbins, it was quite funny

This ^^^ is pretty much what I just said but in a much tidier way!

I'm being told now IMHO is in my 'honest' opinion, implying they bloody lie the rest of the time. I won't believe anything I ever read on here again if it's not accompanied by IMHO
.(Mine will be right tho )
I may have to dispute that
In my opinion disputes are only rectified when the person in the right, gives the person in the wrong, a chinese burn........sorted.....thats just my opinion tho.....

Why should you have to remind them it's your opinion? Whose opinion did they think it was? Englebert bleedin' Humperdinks?

thanks Jonesy
??????? eh?
As do I, it sounds rather thespian!
"In my humble opinion" is a slight piss take, as if to say, "yeah this is my opinion, I'm going to call it 'humble' because I don't really think it's humble, I'm putting my opinion out there and calling it humble sarcastically!"

isn't it a turn of phrase - a figure of speech that has just been shortened like most things nowadays?

God you're contrary Prom! I've just explained it in the post! You're not, as such, reminding them that it's your opinion, you're advising them that your opinion is yours but it's not necessarily prescriptive.
I.e. You shouldn't commit murder
or
IMO should listen to Ska music

There's nothing humble about some of the opinions on here.

Exactly!
So, it's nothing to do with hairy orifices?
In my opinion...........I'm not sure I have one

Why do you need to 'advise' them it's your opinion? Are they stupid? And nobody should listen to ska unless they want to hate music. Will you take that as fact because I neglected to add it was just an opinion?
I intend to be 'contrary' about this till the bitter end
