kreacher Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 If you sew, shouldn't it be, DARN.: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 I often use a different word (or variety of words) when I sew. I will tell you that my favorite curse word is not darn. And when I drive my car in traffic, I have a another list of curse words that I choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoleneK Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Shana, just from your posts I couldn't imagine you using any words stronger than "darn". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbi Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 My Grandma used to always say "Oh! Fudge!" I kinda like "shucks darn", but like my friend Shana, I have a few choice words for other drivers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lym95 Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 I think there is a tiger behind that big smile of Shana's... I'd hate to cross her, especially on the road! I'm pretty laid back and calm about things, but Margie gets a little frustrated some times and lets things slip that the kids shouldn't hear. I've learned that when she cusses, it's an early warning system that provides me a little time to dive for cover before a pair of scissors goes flying past. I think Mary Beth is a "thrower" too, if I remember a past post. And, Kreacher, how about "son-of-a-stitch"...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LauraJ Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Ferdydirtz is a good one when working around kids. Or nutso, as in "I'm going NUTSO!" Here's how I look at curse words. Think of the first letter they start with and the last letter of the word. That is one reason they are so bold when uttered - they have consonants at both ends. It's sure not like saying "good day". Right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiltmonkey Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 LOL Honestly I have to tell you that most of the time when I am quilting the words I curse it is usually saying something to myself "Oh Shana, you big dummy!" or "Shana you are such a dork" ... you get the picture. Or it's "Durn it, Shana I can't believe you sometimes...sheesh!!!" Most of the times I am cursing at myself. The dogs are used to hearing it and pretty much roll their eyes at me or they just sleep through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuliaDay Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Julia's word is CR@P. it is a word that is not a happy word in the house.

Mary Beth Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Yes, I have been known to throw a few things....rulers when I hit them....I slap scissors and will live with that wound for a while...if I had know stab wounds heal on the outside and not on the inside I would have hung my scissors in a different place when I slapped my machine I try not to say the bad words - they just don't come out right....I sound really stupid saying them and I feel even worse if I try to say them. I don't even know what I say when I get to that point. I kind of glaze over and something comes out kind of like that kid on "A Christmas Story" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirabelle Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Well Pete is always in trouble in my house. I am always saying "For Pete's sake". My DH laughs and the kids have always wondered who Pete is. Shazam is also another one I use instead of #amn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
