'Tis the season, right? Glittery and shiny ornaments. Brightly wrapped gifts. Rosy cheeks. The smell of evergreens and peppermint in the air (and snow, if you're in that clime). And the bitten-back curses when you step on one of those ornaments, get a papercut from wrapping those bright gifts, split your wind-chapped lips from smiling as your child exclaims about yet another strip-mall Santa and/or the allergies to said evergreens.
Since having kids, I've learned how to curse creatively. I'm not fooling anyone, but I'm not getting dirty looks or letters sent home from the school, either. Here's a list of my most common alternative curses:
Jiminy Christmas
Son of a Monkey Shoe
Cruddup.
Cripes.
Fadoodle.
Shish-ka-bob.
Hades.
Shih-tzu.
Dagnabbit.
What about you? Do you have any creative alternatives that you use when you're frustrated/angry/hurt?
