Workplace evacuations
This one's really a bit more of a spell-checker-induced-malaprop than anything, but I thought it sort of fit.
My boss, who has notoriously poor spelling, sent out a company-wide email message apologizing for a recent loss of email service. It included the phrase "We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused." The capricious nature of Microsoft Word morphed whatever hideous excuse he'd typed for "inconvenience" into "incontinence." Much hilarity ensued.
Oh, the images - "What, no email? AARGH! (SPLAT!)"

» Dad Jokes
My father, a great proponent of ethnic diversity....
and a fellow of entirely Italian extraction, has one little gem of a joke that occasionally rears its less-than-PC head. At the end of the day, he'll come home, and Mom will ask, "So, honey, how did your day go?" And Dad, in his stellar wit, replies, "Hey - who the hell are you calling a Dago?"
hmph.
