Endless Euphemism Generator. Now you can explore the bunny... or slap the trouser elves... or visiting the sacred pudding. The list goes on and on.

Excellent. This should prove most useful given the intensely conservative and stultified atmosphere around here. I can finally discuss those topics too taboo to mention openly around here.
