One of my favourite quotes from Crocodile Dundee was when Mick arrived in New York and was being shown his opulent hotel room. ON being shown the bathroom, he is confronted with two toilets. Amazed, he calls out, "Hey Sue, some nitwit's put two dunnies in here"
It just goes to show that humour can be gentle and doesn't need to rely on bad language or swear words.
Note: As the video clip is not a youtube one, I can only provide the link.

31. Tampons
Two young boys walked into the chemist shop one day, picked out a box of Tampax then went to the counter to pay. The man at the counter asked the older boy, "Son, how old are you?" "Eight and a half," the boy answered. The man then said, "Do you know how these are used?" The boy replied, "No, not exactly, but they aren't for me. They're for my brother, he's four. We saw on the telly that if you use these you would be able to swim and ride a bike and he can't do either one."

Dear Employees,
It has been brought to our attention that some individuals have been using foul language during the course of normal conversation with their co-workers. Due to complaints, this type of language will no longer be tolerated. However, we realise the critical importance of accurately expressing your thoughts when communicating with co-workers. Therefore, we have provided a list of 18 New and Innovative "TRY SAYING" phrases so proper exchange of ideas may continue in an effective manner.

5. You've got to be sh**ing me! - Really?
6. Tell someone who give a sh** - Perhaps you should check with...
