A '''euphemism''' is a generally innocuous word or expression used in place of one that may be found offensive or suggest something unpleasant.<ref>http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/euphemism</ref> Some euphemisms are intended to amuse; while others use bland, inoffensive terms for things the user wishes to downplay. Euphemisms are used to refer to taboo topics (such as disability, sex, excretion, and death) in a polite way, or to mask profanity.<ref>http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=euphemism </ref>
