My, this is a big internet topic!
Here's a list. I'm seeing some repeats from the inherently funny words discussion (e.g., succotash).
Here's an even longer list. "Obfuscate." Man, I say that in class all the time (when talking about the Supreme Court).
And here's a list of 94, with voting on which sounds dirtiest. #1: "ballcock."
Then there's the song (which I guess is actually NSFW):

Blackadder the Second: Beer
Our hero, Edmund Blackadder is stuck with the dual task of hosting a dinner for his Puritan relatives who dine off raw turnip alone - but who also hold the family money - and a drunken revel the result of a heavy bet as to who is the greater boozer, Lord Melchett or Edmund.
[The booze-up begins:]
Edmund: Well, well, get stuck in, boys.
Partridge: `Stuck in'! Way-hey! Get it?
Monk: No...
Partridge: Well, it sounds a bit rude, doesn't it! 'Stuck in!'
[The boozers laugh, as there's a knock at the front door. It's Lord Melchett.]
Edmund: Er, sorry -- back in a tick.
Partridge: Way-hey! `Tick', eh, lads? Now; that sounds a bit rude, doesn't it...That sounds a bit
like `bum'.
[They rock with laughter as with all innuendos except the last.]
Melchett: Good evening, er...
Edmund: Lads, this is Lord Melchett.
Edmund: Er, give him a large one, will you?
Partridge: `Large one'! Way-hey! Get it?
Piddle: No...
Partridge: Yes you do! `Large one'! Sounds a bit rude!
Piddle: Oh yes! `Large one'!
Melchett: I notice you're not drinking, Blackadder...
Edmund: Oh, don't you worry about me, Melchers... I'm holding my own here.
Partridge: Way-hey! `Holding my own'! Now, that sounds incredibly rude!
Monk: Come on, lads -- let's give him a real drink!
Edmund: Well, fine...
Monk: Bums up!
Partridge: Way-hey! `Bums'! Sounds a bit like `bum', doesn't it?
[Greeted with total silence.]
Eventually both parties merge, all get stinking drunk - including the Queen who happened to drop by on the off-chance of some fun and the visiting Aunt and Uncle.
They are last seen in a heap on the floor with Edmund trying amidst the din to tell the story of the 'little goblin' [very rude word.]
Edmund: Right! Well, perhaps this time I might be allowed to continue, and perhaps finish,
with any luck...
[Suddenly, from under Queen's dress, Aunt emerges.]
Aunt: `Luck'? Hah hah hah! Way-hey! Get it?
[Everyone says, "No..."]
Aunt: Oh, come on! `Luck'! Sounds almost exactly like `f---'
...word overlaid with title music.
I should point out that the official Groundhog Day, in which the star of the show is Punxsatawney Phil the Groundhog, takes place at Gobbler's Knob.
Driveshaft.
Cocktail!!!
I didn't get a chance to watch the video as I'm on my way out the door. Have to drive 348 miles from Fresno to San Diego for band rehearsal.
PS. I posted some cool new music on my blog.
PPS. No, the music isn't mine, so it won't suck!
And then there are phrases which sound dirty:
"Hard of hearing"
"Moist towelettes"
"Lays Potato Chips"
Whew! Can someone turn up the a/c??
Cheers,
Victoria
