I also found this interesting euphemism of “bald”:
“You’re not bald, you’re just taller than your hair.”

Actually, the blog http://walkinthewords.blogspot.com/ has a lot of really interesting Linguistic cartoons!

This is a great comic and a wonderfully creative euphemism. I really enjoy reading your blog.

P.S. For some reason the link you posted doesn’t work. Here is another link to the baldness euphemism post –
