I just checked the weather. Was planning to go hunting tomorrow but it will be well below zero. Need some suitable swear words for a family forum.

How about:

Gosh blast it!
Dad gummit!

That's a start.

I've never liked the comic book @%*$# method because it doesn't seem witty enough.

Here's a log of great suggestions from people who responded (and a few others):
Dad burnit!
Gosh Darn It!
Oh fiddlesticks!
Oh beans!
Dagnabbit!
Shucks!
Dang Gummit!
Balderdash!
Dash it all!
Curses!
Blast!
Cracker crookin' feedbag for a hearse horse!
Oh! give me strength!
Oh please!

I guess this is subjective, but I don't find your suggestions particularly witty either...

I love "Look out!...Don't step in that pile of Pelosi."

But I think "Obama you!" is more appropriate.

What Sarah Palin says seems to be acceptiable.

Gosh Darn It!

My great aunt used to say Oh fiddlesticks when she dropped something. Then when she got mad she would go around saying oh curses instead of actually saying a curse word. She was funny to me, but I was six or so at the time.

As a kid I used to say "oh beans!".

Had an 8th gr teacher that apparently at one time had a gutter mouth. She explained she learned to use the words "Shaving Cream" as a more acceptable alternative.

HEH, good subject. Dagnabbit, one of my favorites. Well shucks, or shuckydurn. POWDERMAN.

myronman3 · « **Reply #11 on:** January 29, 2010, 11:25:14 AM »

maybe if you know it is a family forum, you should just forget about cursing and just try to keep it clean.

Cabin4 · « **Reply #12 on:** January 29, 2010, 05:04:18 PM »

I like "Dang Gummit" or "Bouldered Ash"

Cheesehead · « **Reply #13 on:** January 29, 2010, 05:21:19 PM »

I like "what the" and just stop there.

I learned at the feet of the Great Grandmaster of Public Vitrol, "rackenjabafracken rabbit" Used often by Yeosemite Sam a true western pistolero and cinema legend.

We would be a better nation, and the world a better place if these were the words we used when angered or stressed. POWDERMAN.

I've been known to use the "F bomb" when very upset, but I have made a deal with the wife to say "Friendly" instead. Now when I hit my thumb with the Hammer it is a "Friendly" hammer!

But I think "Obama you!" is more appropriate.

This may very well replace "Freindly"

scootrd · « **Reply #17 on:** January 30, 2010, 06:55:14 AM »

When Kids are abound I use Buckin ..
If for the hammer example Slim posted above - I hit my thumb it's usually that "Buckin" nail driver bit me again.
I like "rackenjabafracken rabbit" But there is no way I could ever remember it. Especially when I am in pain.

Tis a pretty shallow minded person who must resort to the use of swear words in public especially in polite company. Rather than try to figure out swear words that might be acceptable in this family oriented site how about learning to express yourselves minus swearing at all.

magooch · « **Reply #22 on:** February 01, 2010, 03:25:06 AM »

Learning to hit the right nail with the hammer might help also.

slim rem 7 · « **Reply #23 on:** February 01, 2010, 03:25:17 AM »

a good goal greybeard.. im not there but much better than i use to be..
i never used swear words until i faced making ends meet ,,while raising 5 kids..
some times i sweat pretty much.. that was before i learned to turn all that over to the real problem solver..
work like it all depends on you ..pray like it all depends on the creator. slim

43 years ago I had a good friend teach me that blasphemy and/or obscenity was the most useles of methods to use as an Army NCO. He called himself " a Texas boy" and for anything out of the ordanairy he used Umbriago trademarked by Jimmy Durante.
We hunted together at Ft Benning and met each others families later. Last letter I got from him was after he stopped and went hunting pheasant with Dad before deployment. 42 years ago he earned a space on "The Wall" in Arlington" Every other year our kids now grown and on thier own give me a set of plane tickets to Arlington with a stop in Texas to see Pep's dad, and family. For whatever it's worth,

Umbriago
