I try to err on the side of diplomacy with a firm "DANG!"

Unfortunately, I am not always successful.

Anywho, I use those things all the time! Most of the time it's "Fudge" but sometimes I slip up and it turns into "FFFFFAAAAAAAAAAH-Jesus...". I'm afraid that if I try cussin' I won't be able to control when one comes out of my mouth and it'll happen at the least opportune moment like a college interview so I just choose euphemisms instead ;p

I have a wide array of fill-ins for swear words. Here are just a few.

-Oh tarnations!
-fiddle sticks
-dang nabbit
-Dirty mangling filthy *mumble mumble mumble*
-Fudge
-fudgits
-ohshi (pronounced "oh-she"
-fffffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuu
-raaaaaaaaaaage
And so on.

I recall a paintball tourny I was in. It was at a community fair thing, so no swearing. Zero tolerance, anyone caught swearing was DQ'd. Well the announcer likes to swear, and our team was called " Off constantly", we had lost our first round, and over the PA, everyone could hear " Legion beat off constantly, Legion beat off constantly" followed by " What! What the fudge! Who's fudging idea was that! Those fudgin bastych's! Get them the fudge over here!"

What a day.

I actually can't think of anyone that I've been around for a long time that I haven't heard swear at least once.

I've even heard my grandmother (who is about as close as any real person can be to the Church Lady from the old SNL skit) swear twice.

Still I'd rather be around people who hardly swear than people who can't go a sentence without it. Swearing doesn't offend me (in fact when I started teaching high school I was 22 and had to retrain myself not to swear) but it gets irritating when every other word out of your mouth is some variation of the f-word.

One of my fraternity brothers honestly said the f word more than any other word other than possible "the". One of the other brothers had a click counter (he worked at a club and had to count people on nights when there was live music) and we measured his use of f*** for a day. I'm sure we missed some but I remember it being in the 300s.

For me, it's usually a hearty "Doggone it!"

I quit swearing cold turkey after I heard on too many rehearsal tapes with me running at the mouth. I realized that the over-use of these words just makes people sound less intelligent.

When I worked in a nursing home I had to make sure that I didn't use any vulgar words (it's a serious breach of rules and is grounds for termination) and the easiest way for me to remember was to simply not use any interjections at all, such as "darn it" or "oops" or "golly gee". Getting into the habit of not saying anything at all when the opportunity for a curse word presented itself (which happens a lot in a nursing home ) was good self discipline and I think it made me a little calmer as an added benefit.

For the almost two years that I worked there, I'm pretty sure that I never heard any employee there use a single vulgar word. The residents said them all the time.

Personally, I think that saying words to replace 'offensive' words is stupid - it isn't the word that is offensive, but the intent behind it. If you called someone a 'fudging bar steward', it is plainly obvious what you meant/wanted to say, and in my eyes is really no less offensive - it just makes you look a bit childish, like 'Oh, if I don't say the actual word they'll never know what I meant, and it doesn't count anyway!'. Either do it properly or don't do it at all.
