Exclamations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Gamemaster77]

I'm not sure if this should be in humor and jokes so someone please move it if so. I thought of a fun thread to make. I was thinking of the movie Anchorman how Ron said things like "Great Oden's Raven!" and "Sweet Grandmother's Spatula!". There was also another place I heard some from that I can't seem to remember. So, what are some creative alternative exclamations that you guys can think of?

Moderator Action: Dubious, but let's give it a try. If it falls apart then we'll move it to H&J or close it.

Birdwings!!!

Used at a sleep over summer camp by counselors instead of swearing in front of impressionable 9-14 year olds.

Now for one of my own since I figured I'd keep the OP just background. This one is used a lot by people at my school. They will yell BOB SAGET!
The sad part is though some people that say that don't even know who he is.

I've heard that one before. We say "son of a cowboy!", "I Agree!", and "only on Wednesdays!". You'd have to be in our art class to get them. Another One me and my friends say may or may not be appropriate for CFC, so I'm not gonna risk it.

According to author Robert Graves, Augustus Caesar used to exclaim, "A thousand Furies and serpents!" I don't know if this has been documented in a primary source, though.

For fake cussing, I've sometimes resorted to using the names of various Cthulhu Mythos entities. "Oh, Nyar-la-THOTEP!", for example, can be appropriate when you stub your toe.

A while back, when I was very keen to avoid blasphemy, I would avoid swearing on God's name (when stubbing a toe, for example) by substituting the nearest alternative I could think of (sound-wise), which turned out to be the inventor of the speed camera.

"Gatsonides!"

Mother of Thunderfall!

Classic!!



Are we excluding the Firefly/Galactica replacements for the traditional expletives?

"Jeezumcrow!" is a vaguely common one as you get into northern New England.

"Why the face?!?!" is one my wife and I have taken to using, after hearing a tv news program asking older non-internet-literate people what acronyms like ROFL and WTH mean.

By the beard of zeus!

Robin always had some beauties.

My favourite was when he entered some dingy cave and exclaimed "Holy ghouls and goblins Batman!"

鸡蛋糕！

My mother always said it and I caught myself using it very often.
It means "Chicken Cake!" or "Chicken Egg Cake!".

 

[IglooDame]

"Great Caesar's ghost!" is one, but for the life of me I can't remember where I heard/read it. Comics, probably.

 

[Ajidica]

Great Zombie Lenin!

But I only used that on November 13th with some of my friends who all knew the refrence, so your mileage may vary.

You guys copied us

 

[Tee Kay]

Tintin ones:

"Crumbs!"
"Great Snakes!"
"By the whiskers of Kûrvi-Tasch!"
"By the sceptre of Ottokar!"
"Flaming Fujiyama!"
"Billions of billious blue blistering boiled and barbecued barnacles in a thundering typhoon!"

And one from Asterix:

"Ils sont fous ces romains!"

 

[Tani Coyote]

"Blood for the blood God! Skulls for the skull throne!"

Shout this at the top of your lungs as you are going up the incline of a rollercoaster to creep everyone else out. If you have a few friends to do the chant/exclamation with you, it's even better.

 

[Leonel]

Exclamations are alright as long as it's in ones (!) or in threes (!!!). NEVER in twos (!!) or more (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

 

[Zack]

Um, people say "Bob Saget!!!" friggin' everywhere.
