When you want to cuss (or swear or curse...) but can't, what do you say?

[julie_yet]

Dipstick

Flock

Son of a pig

Well crap on my grave!

 

[Honu]

I use my grandma's swear words -

Cheese and Crackers (which is said in the same candence as Jeeeez Suss Christ) and Ratz (with a rolling R).

 

[Disney Ron]

Some are these are quite creative!

Mrs. Disney Ron

I don't swear (and I have no idea of why damnit is my son's favorite word)

I say "Son of a Sea Serpent"....and if I'm really mad I say "Son of a Sea Serpent and his mother too!"

 

[blana]

Dadblameit is probably my most used one. Ooh, and Biddy.

 

[elizke]

My mom's two most often used words, only when she was really really mad, were dadgummit and tarnation, as in "what in tarnation...".

I usually say dangit. But it's not always enough, so I appreciate all the suggestions in this thread.

I resolved a couple of years or so ago to give up swearing altogether and for the most part I've succeeded. I tend to use "Jeez Oh Pete", "Oh Good Lord" or "God Bless it" rather than "gd". I do continue to use "Hell" pretty regularly - as in "What the Hell". I also borrowed a word from the late author Douglas Adams and use "Zarking" quite a bit.

 

[imsorry]

I think my new one will be Phuket. I'm told it is a place, and it DOES NOT rhyme with bucket!

 

[Briarmom]

Tartar Sauce and Barnicles! Spongebob

I was trying to find the lyrics to the Barnacles song...ds has it on his iPod. It's so funny! "Barnacles is the way we say what they say we can't say..."

I always say "what the crap" or "holy crap". Crap is my word of choice.

I am a big user of crap. DD has started saying Poopie on a cracker.

I say poop stains on rye bread.

"Bunghole" (which I guess is part of a barrell? She's a retired history teacher)

Either that or your mom is a big fan of Beavis and Butthead.

Mark me down for one who uses "CRAP" too.

[TinkerbEllnor]

I use 'Rats!' and 'Farfeg-nugen' (sp? old VW commercial)

A particularly ballsy old co-worker of mine used to tie up frustrating phone calls with women with "allright, so I'll *see you next Tuesday*" and then hang up. I never heard any fallout from that so most of them must have been

[XOoOoVEEoOoOX]

and in my house the word "MEW" can display a RANGE of emotions from happines with a short high pitched MEW! to real anger with a deep rumbling slow "mewwww", and this word came about thanks to the original Pokemon movie lol....

 

[ocd4disney]

Ever since that silly gum commercial we have started saying cootie queen and lint licker.....oh and don't forget 'what the french toast'. OMG! I love that commercial. It makes me

I also say jeez louise alot. I didn't realize how much I said it until DS3 started saying it.

Dadgumit is also a personal favorite of mine. (thanks to Grandpa for teaching it to me )

And my sister and I call the 'see you next tuesday' word the fighting word cuz it can make a biddy jump right over the bar and kick your 'ace'

[pooksma]

I use "poop on a stick" more often than not.

 

[daannzzz]

I managed a fast food place back in the late 70's and the kids that worked for me would often swear. I explained that it wasn't acceptable but if you had to exclaim something say the same thing with different words. They liked that idea. The main one that came up was "Male offspring of a copulating female dog"

 

[JVL1018]

Well, I DO curse, but I try not to, and when I am succeeding I use:
dag
frig (hard g)
MOTHER..(big pause as I struggle not to say the bad word)..of pearl
For the love of Pete
Crap
Fudge
