If you can find an official's manual, it helps to clear up this picture. It lays explicitly why jokes from coaches constitute technical fouls. I can't remember where exactly, but it's right after the portion about good refs not allowing overtime. Once again, the passage is pretty transparent, much like rule 11.2.4.

The fact is there is casebook on this too. 11.2.4 Situation A (witty remarks about self or own team- no T) and Situation B (comedic comments about officials- T)
But the biggest secret we keep from coaches is discussed in casebook 4.45.1 (make up calls) shhhhhhh...
