Posting a followup in the worst pain thread, made me wonder something rather silly, "What people exclaim when they're in pain?" Being from the upper midwest, seems to me most people around here exclaim "AHH!" or "OWW" as I do.

But funny thing. When I worked 6 years in a hospital in Nashville, it seemed most southerners exclaimed in pain, "Oh Me, Oh me".

So....what do you exclaim when you're in pain and where are you from?

REMINDER ! All profanity must be fully masked !!!!!!!
 
Usually just a weird sound or a simple “oww” or “ouch”.

I’ve made somewhat of an effort not to swear or blaspheme – so when I’m really in pain, or upset, I may from time to time exclaim “Jesus Jones!”

I doubt anyone around me ever get’s the reference. Then I walk away humming “right here, right now…”
 
Mostly I just just howl or whimper...if anyone's near me I'll apologize profusely in between howls so I'll be like "Awooo...sorry...Ahhh...so sorry...wahhh...I'msorreeamIm botheringyou...GYAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"

I don't know why I do that.
