Wait! What is wrong with euphemisms? Are they inherently bad or do you just tend to overuse them?
I'm a big good grief-er, and an oh my word-er myself..
both i think...the other day i was talking with some friends - and it came out that my pastor calls them 'candy-coated cuss words' he he. not all of them, just the ones that are the name of God references.
i like some of them, though! like dagnabbit, which is a derivative of 'G** you know what it'!
Gotcha. I remember a few years back when Bubba said something like, "You would think we live with Charlie Brown and the Crocodile Hunter," because I always said good grief and the WH was always saying that thing the Crocodile Hunter always said. Turns out the k-word is a derivation of Christ. So, yeah. He had to knock that off. Good grief is okay, though. Right??
HA! :)
I have to say... HE doesn't call them candy-coated-cuss words, but was raised in a legalistic environment that did.
He would say "bah. Secondary issue."
Ya it is the same thing when I just yell F!!! I know what I am sayin! :) K~
