This radiation dose chart (created by Randall Monroe of xkcd) explains in layman's terms some of the various sources of radiation and their relative dangers.
My favorite notes:
Eating one banana (0.1 Β΅Sv).
A cell-phone's transmitter does not produce ionizing radiation and does not cause cancer (unless it's a bananaphone).
If you are basing radiation safety procedures on an internet PNG image and things go wrong, you have no one to blame but yourself.
