C word = cute

LOL Pepper! Yes, I'm very cute! I really wish that were the used word. I think I will replace it with that

That is hidonkulous! So totally funny!

When I was little my mom hardly ever swore. When she did, she'd say F'in A. My first name starts with A, so I always wondered why she was mad at me. She never knew until I grew up and told her, but I used to cry in my room wondering what I did wrong.

My mom (who is a lot like Rose from the Golden Girls) has only two "cuss" phrases:

For an average "oh s&*#" expletive-my mom will say "Good Night Nurse!"

For those of the "F'n A" variety, it's "Shoot the dog!"

As a child, I did worry about our dog now and then...

JohnsTwin, those are great! I think I've used "Shoot the Dog" before myself. We have a giant hound dog that howls continuously. He is very cute, but can be grinding on the nerves at times, so the expression I used was more directed at the actual dog; although I am an animal lover and would never really shoot him. I think i may use that one for sure though now.

My Mom used to blurt out "Land o' Goshen!" What the H???? LOL

LOL! That's a great one! Another one that I onle heard one person ever use was, "Schuky Darn!"

Hi EAM-

You have email!

Thanks JohnsTwin! You have one now too!

Our REALLY serious cuss phrases in our house are Jeeze Louise and God bless America. They are really comical coming from a three year old grand daughter.


God's Blessings,

Say

I'm sorry, I can resist no longer:

The two phrases I use most when I don't want to swear are:

"Godfrey Daniel, mother of pearl!"

and

"Great googly-moogly ooglies!"

Love the first one, Fred. Never heard it before.

God's Blessings,

Say

LOL! Jeeze Louise and God Bless America are my mom's new fav's since I told her I took the other personal..

My ten year old son love loves the Spongebob swear words; "Tarter Sauce!". "Fish-Paste!", and "Barnacles!"

Those are awesome Fred; I don't think I've ever heard those before either!

How about "Hubbly-Bubbly!"?

I got some more good ones...I was telling my mom some of the ones I hadn't heard and she told me theses...My great grandma said, "putty-putty!", "Fiddlesticks!", and "Oh Shaw"! My grandpa used to say "Yer fulla wet hay!"! Also she had..."That's a pile of ships!" and "Piddle-paddle!" and "It was a dog's breakfast!" and "snizzle-snazzle!" They're all pretty old fashioned, but funny.

I had a similar one... when DD17 was about 12, we were at the dinner table and I dropped the butter turning the cloth into splatsville.

I yelped "CRAP!" to which she replied with shocked look on her face "You used the C-word, and AT THE TABLE"

Got another response to the exposure letter...

"BS I have no idea who you are and why you would be tellling me about what is going on in your life. You know life is not fair sometimes, but things like this are what make us stronger as individuals. If you are getting divorced from WS then it was not meant for you two to be together. I know WS and OW both from high school and there is no doubt in my mind that either one of them would purposley hurt anyone. So move on and be a better person and mother and quit putting your business out there because it makes you look pretty psycho and I don't even know you!"

I am having a hard time with this one. So I'm psycho because I love ny H and am upset about the affair and subsequent D proceedings.

"If you are getting D from WS then it was not meant for you to be together"...So, it's all fate...she just slipped and landed on his D**k? and that means that he and I weren't meant to be.

Oh yeah and if I were a better person, I'd just slink into the shadows and accept it. right?

Oh and reagrding them purposefully hurting anyone..Um, well my H knew he was married and made promises before God; I believe that the OW also knew...If them then having an affair is not purposefull hurting someone, then I'm not sure what is.

And...it seems like this person feels like affairs are fine and dandy as long as you don't know the injured person.

Am I reading too much into it? I was feeling much better today until I got this.
