So I went searching the Interwebs for a list of euphemisms for insanity. My search is, thus far, unsuccessful, but by way of impulsively following Wikipedia links, I came to the Frack article.

Which mentions that Bill Adama has an Ikea mirror called a 'Fräck'. And, indeed, 9:53 into 33...

It's almost as fun as the scene with Serenity on Caprica.

In conclusion: no closer to what I actually wanted, but vastly more amused.

Let me guess why you need euphemisms for insanity...

Strings of offhand references, mostly, but those do relate to the obvious reason.

HP Spoiler Generator. Not as funny as ours, IMHO, but still pretty good.

"Ron Weasley is killed by Mrs Peacock in the Forbidden Forest"

With the lead pipe?

In the Forbidden Forest, I'd be surprised if it were anything as mundane as the lead pipe.

Very true. Um... the deadly nightshade, perhaps?
