How about when people say crap?

blackstone April 26 2008, 15:22:56 UTC

Not the same, in my opinion, because "Shit" isn't blasphemous. It's the "My intent is to commit blashphemy but since I am only using rhyming words I can get away with it and not go to hell" theory that bothers me.

eididdy April 26 2008, 16:36:38 UTC

Ah, ok, I thought it was just the substitution that bothered you.

blackstone April 26 2008, 17:27:59 UTC

Nah. But "fracking" really gets on my nerves. I see girls on the internet use that one a lot.

theryk April 26 2008, 17:17:51 UTC

When I say "Jesus Christ" in anger, I give him a middle name that is a verb that starts with "F"....

p.s. other dull euphemisms:

Jeezle Pete
Jesum Crow
Holy Freakin' Son O' God
Right Said Fred

blackstone April 26 2008, 17:25:52 UTC

Jeezle Pete just sounds dirty.

And wait. Are you saying that Right Said Fred ISN'T the Messiah?!

No, he's too sexy for his hair-shirt

When my brother was attending Kansas University, it was vogue to cry "Jesus Tits!"

I immediately spread that among my friends in high school.

blackstone April 26 2008, 17:59:14 UTC

Oh, I am fully in support of that one. That's better than "Jesus Horatio Christ on a pogo stick with a side of curly fries."

I sometimes used to say, "Jesus Christ on a Nuclear-powered Pogo-stick!" but was told to stop back in 2000 because the President couldn't pronounce it.

I'm a fan of "Flaming Christ on a Pogo-stick!"

blackstone April 26 2008, 19:51:56 UTC

Our Lord certainly does a lot of pogo-sticking.

Now, is that Christ on fire or Christ in sequins?

tomecatti April 26 2008, 19:52:51 UTC

Oooh, I never thought of the Christ in sequins...

(I'm also a fan of Jumping Jehoshaphat, but that's just because it sounds so wacky.)

blackstone April 26 2008, 20:00:40 UTC

Well, you are nicer and more politically correct than me.

Jumping Jehoshaphat is very good. Also, "Jesus Harold Christ in a Made-for-TV Starring Michael J Fox and Nancy McKean!"
