I don't not get the double negatives in sentences. I do not never get it right. 
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Are you allowed to put easter eggs or humorous messages in your programs? We write business apps, so it's frowned upon.

I once released a Tetris like game that could be launched with the correct key sequence from anywhere within the application. This went out to well over a hundred servers with 5 to 10 users at most of the installations.
I doubt anyone ever found it.
We also had a help icon on each screen that when clicked popped up a message saying help not implemented. I changed one of them to say RTFM. I know someone found that because they phoned up to complain. I argued this showed we should actually get around to writing the help some day.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Dunno, are you allowed to put a Sanity Clause in your EULA?

Security author Michel E. Kabay discussed security concerns in 2000, saying that software quality assurance requires that all code be tested, but it is not known if Easter eggs are tested. He said that because they tend to be held as programming secrets from the rest of the product testing process, a "logic bomb" could also bypass testing.
I'd say that depending on the access gained and information kept it would be dependant on how the easter egg works and what access can potentially be granted access to if the easter egg is exploited or something. Regarding your question if it is just something that is written funny or so forth it would probably not be a problem, but be safe if it is frowned upon

No.
So, officially, we do not have any easter eggs in the application

We once had a VDT for one of the British Police Forces which contained a hidden Space Invaders clone, where the invaders were replaced with policemen, and the UFO with a police car.
They loved it!

We once wrote a system for a UK Police force - my boss asked their project manager what it should do if a user tried to perform a particular action - "It should tell them to bugger off" was the reply.
A few weeks later we got a complaint when somebody tried to do the offending action - the screen cleared, and slowly filled with "BUGGER OFF" in very large characters, while the speaker played the Monty Python theme. I was very proud of this, as it was a DOS based system, and the display was done with ASCII graphics and the tune was played by an assembler program.
We had to change it to a pop up saying "Unauthorised action"

I think this is every corporate developers favorite pastime. Unfortunately, I rarely get to do it, due to a complete lack of valid specs...

That's where the "back of an envelope" specification (or a note of a phone call in your day book) comes in really handy!
