My friend does something similar for majority of online communication, every time he refers to something potentially illegal/ immoral/ shares some weird experience he uses "my friend" instead of "I"

IRC does this for you, if you put "/me" into an utterance.

[Edit] Several other chat services copy that behaviour.
