@timur,
At least it was semi-private.
It has been brought to management's attention that some individuals throughout the group have been using foul language during the course of normal conversation with their co-workers. Due to complaints received from some employees who may be easily offended, this type of language will be no longer tolerated.
We do however, realize the critical importance of being able to accurately express your feelings when communicating with co-workers, therefore, a list of "TRY SAYING" new phrases has been provided so that proper exchange of ideas and information can continue in an effective manner without risk of offending our more sensitive employees.
SO:
TRY SAYING: Perhaps I can work late.
INSTEAD OF: When the **** do you expect me to do this?
TRY SAYING: I'm certain that is not feasible.
INSTEAD OF: No ******* way!!
TRY SAYING: Really?
INSTEAD OF: You've got to be shitting me?

@Region Philbis,
There's a new Japanese-Jewish restaurant in town. It's called "So-sumi."
How can you tell if your wife is having an affair with an elephant?
You take her to a bar, and when she sits on a bar stool, she goes all the way to the floor.
@Glennn,
Liquor may be slow poison, but who is in a hurry?
@Region Philbis,
I'm just wondering how low the UK pound will drop against the Euro before it settles?
