What are your go to words when trying not to curse?

[BroadwayHermione5]

Ding dang

In real life, depending on whom I’m with, I just say it. Otherwise it’s usually just “crap”.

 

[Skywalker3]

Rarely don't just curse in the first place....but I do often say Mother Trucker,. Often abbreviate like it's hot AF. But sometimes I'll say silly stuff like, 'aww poodleledoos, or poopydo,' or other silly stuff. My aunts used to say 'foot.'
I like the pp who listed Dank Farrik, we haven't said that one, but sometimes I'll say E chu ta. Usually for no reason tho, just fun.

My dad used to say "Dagnabbit"!

 

[Mysterian]

E chu ta.

How rude!

 

[CO2CA]

Dang it, darn it, shoot, poop.

When I'm in the car, though, that's a different story...

Daughters were playing a video game years ago. Oldest got frustrated and her words of choice "Shiznets and cheese". Everyone in the family uses it now.

What are your go to words when trying not to curse? I always thought the world would be a nicer and politer place if cursing became a thing of the past. If more people followed that trend, maybe we all could get along better in this world.

Ex. Dang it, fiddlesticks, fudge bars.

I go with one of the 2 Williams: Shatner or Falkner.

Oh biscuits, cheese and crackers, beans on toast. Thanks, Bandit Heeler.

 

[HopperFan]

Wait ... we are supposed to substitute words?

 

[easyas123]

Fudgesicles for the F word
Sugar Pops for the S word

ASSUMING I remember to substitute them when I'm in front of my niece, otherwise I just let them fly.

 

[AndreaDM]

Son of a biscuit.

Mother lovin son of a duck

Son of a biscuit is my go to as well.

Fudgenugget for the F word.

When I'm just mildly frustrated, Oh Pickles will do.

You are 100% correct but I have gotten points for substitutes or just stating something about a bad word without saying it or abbreviating it. I also got points for many of the exact things posted by others on this thread. There are or were a few mods that were targeting me for a while so I really try to be careful but it seems I still get points at least once a month lol.

Here is one example of me being scolded.

Dang- more than one of us have used that exact phrase in this thread. I’m still not clear on the whole points thing…in any event, I agree it’s unevenly assigned.

Fudge, poop, darn.
