π Follow me for more old-timey swears, like:
Hot dog!
Egad
Gadzooks
Golly gee
Consarnit
Gee whiz
Fudge
Bird feathers
Plus my personal favourite...
Shaving cream. π
And in Spanish--
Ay, caracol (snail, instead of saying "carajo", a vulgar word for penis used as commonly as, ah, "fudge" in English)
MiΓ©rcoles (Wednesday, used instead of "mierda", excrement, when around kids)
Mine is "hypers!" Nancy Drew's pal George used to say it all the time, as in
βHypers, Nancy, I donβt know how to talk to a doctor of archaeology.β π
Oh, but you would be the best Nancy Drew. I would be George to your Nancy any day. :)
π We just need a Bess. She'll remind us to comb our hair and stay out of the mud. We won't listen, but it's good to know she's looking out for us.
π Perfection! And if a few Hardy Boys want to join us for a cross-franchise adventure from time to time, that's fine and dandy, but we three will ride well* on our own.
*NB: We'll need a blue roadster, of course - or at least a blue convertible! But one thing at a time!
@MLClark @LiseL My grandmother would say sugar.
My shrink told me swearing is good for the soul.
