I've been waitinggggg for a conversation like this to happen, to somebody else, if not to me.
N It did, at my friend's wedding:
I had been to chanpatna (near mysore)to attend my frnds wedding, He had booked a farm house for myself and his colleagues.. And b'caz i was the only girl i got the bedroom wth attached bathroom and his other colleagues slept in the hall as all the other rooms were occupied and were using common bathroom..
On the day of the marriage when i got ready n came dwn to the hall i saw 2 guys waiting fr the bathroom...
I knew one of them so i askd him to use my bathroom and gave him my room keys but the other south indian guy (swami) who was also waiting for the bathroom got very irritated and shouted at the North Indian guy inside, "Abbe kitni der se udhar kar kya raha hai??!!!"
The guy inside (a Bihari) replies, "Hum naha rahein hain!!"
Swami (turned red):"Oh!! Aur kaun hain andar??"
Dont ask me wht was my reaction aftr listening to tht!!! :D:D
I've always liked calling myself "hum" though I don't do so. Stuff like this is bound to happen if I did!! :P

'hum' gives a sense of collectivism and is more so used because person using it is used to giving decision for others as well...s/he hardly uses singular stand.... just gassing around :-)
on side note...overheard conversations are always fun to have around and you can pick some of the most interesting ones that can anytime get you rolling.
