 The conversation begins with a reference to the controversy between whether IMHO stands for "in my '''honest''' opinion" or "in my '''humble''' opinion". Some older Internet users, including Cueball, use the H to mean "humble", which Cueball references as being the norm in the 1990s. However, many younger Internet users, including, apparently, Ponytail, use it to mean "honest", which became the norm after another SMS abbreviation, TBH (to be honest) became popular c. 2011 [https://trends.google.de/trends/explore?date=all&q=tbh,imho]. However, the joke veers into absurdity with Ponytail sharing her unusual opinions on other Internet controversies, including:
-*Believing the G in {{w|GIF}} (Graphics Interchange Format) is silent, so she pronounces it "if", as opposed to the two main camps claiming it should be either a soft G (as in "giantess") or a hard G (as in "graphics"). Some people (okay, maybe just one) pronounce it as an "h" (like how Gs are pronounced in Spanish).
