Modern swear words are so boring. It doesn't take much intelligence to blurt out a four letter word.

The rule in my house is, if you feel the need to shout something, it had better be creative and original.

Then I found this adorable article, that can give you some good ideas. Read the comments too, some of them are hysterical. LOL

For a few years, when there was a language problem in our families ly, we had a paper taped to the kitchen wall with other options.
Golly gee willikers (or whiskers)
Dog nabbit!
Geez Louise!

It was a long list, but also a little n time ago.

My mom always liked "Son of Sea Biscuit!"

If my dad didn't like someone, he would call them a turkey. If he really, REALLY didn't like someone, he'd call them a turkey butt. That's when you knew he was really upset and angry. That is the worst thing I've ever heard him say. He's a very gentle and polite man.

At one point in my school career, I was given a page of make your own Shakespearean insults. It had three columns, and you picked one word from each to come up with a curse. While I know it was not a sheet that I deliberately threw out, I of course have no idea where it currently is. It seems like it's the perfect thing for this thread, though!

I had a teacher who I guess would be just past 100 now who would say, Good gravy!

grapefruit. ok, I just like saying grapefruit at random times. it bugs my kids. I'll walk up to them like I have a big secret and then whisper, "also, grapefruit." it's a multi-tasker of a word.

As the one of very few around the many who cussed out loud "oh jes*s", we adapted the " oh cheese it" in the workplace. Now when my toddler repeated it in public I realized I must have brought the cheeses home embarrassed

There's a funny scene on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt:

Kimmy (exasperated): Golly gee wilikers!
Elderly black gentleman: Yes? I'm Goliath Gary Wilikers!... Rude!

Or you can always go with a line from The Princess Bride:
"You miserable vomitous mass"
"You warthog faced buffoon"

"Oh Shiznit." Or "Son of a mother." We often just use letters between me and DH, usually when we are paraphrasing what others say: "He had him on speaker phone, and I heard him drop the F-Bomb, man, not cool." Or, "He kept saying, 'my dog, he never 'S' in the house!'"
