Humbled

[scene] numerous Linkedin posts

[observation] false modesty

[intent] boasting and the inducement of envy

[details] “I am humbled to receive…”

variations include “honoured”, “privileged”, “excited”, “thrilled”,…

Behavior that is intended to seem humble but comes across as fake and unflattering.

I wonder what the collective noun is for the false modesty adjectives?

A vacillation of bullshit adjectives.
