I think some of the things on the list are conceptual jokes but not 
practical, sort of like the stuff that happens to Wiley Coyote.  These are 
funny to think about, or see in a cartoon, but not funny if they really 
happened to someone.  I think the guideline for "jokes" has to be 
harmlessness.  A joke should be funny and clever.  It can be annoying or 
embarrassing or frustrating, but you have to draw the line at the 
potential for actual harm.  If it has the potential for real harm, then it 
is not a joke.
