Around others, I say "oh my gosh" and "darn it." My husband makes fun of me for it.
Jesus H. Christ is one of the ones I grew up hearing and routinely use.
Anyone know what the "H" stands for?

I agree with this except I am a little offend by Oh my God. To me it's a 10 commandment thing. I never say anything when I hear though because I know most people aren't offended by it and also there have been times I tried to say Oh my gosh and it came out sounding like God when I didn't mean for it to. (Once some churchy mcchurchy lady called me on it and I was really embarrassed because that wasn't what I meant to say, it just came out sounding wrong and she wasn't listening well. I was about 9 or so and at a friend's church.) But anything related to Jesus Christ is just about the most offensive thing I can hear used as a swear or pseudo swear phrase. I'd rather hear almost anything else. I might still think you're lacking a decent vocabulary but I'll feel sorry for you vs. completely losing respect for you.Anonymous wrote:I don't like it and I don't use it but I am not really offended by it. What I do find offensive is when people use Jesus Christ or Jesus F'ing Christ as swear / curse words.
