inside jokes

what are secret (and amusing) ways you proclaim your plurality during occasions where it is not good to be Out as plural?

when we answer polls on forums, in which there is conversation about the results and answers, but we are not Out... we like to say, "i picked X for multiple reasons." in this way, the compulsive truth-tellers speak truthfully, and the compulsive evasives evade, and we are all amused in the process!

I used to simply out of instinct refer to myself in plural 'we' instead of 'I', because it was true. I did this by the time I knew how to speak until I realized it was different from other people, so I don't do it that much anymore because I watch it, but I still do now and then when I'm really tired.
