What do you say when you want to say something "bad" - but want to maintain the illusion of sounding like a lady or gentleman?

Flying fartnockers. It has enough syllables to make you feel better when you say it.
That being said, a bunch of scientists did a study to find out if swearing in response to injury or stress made the person feel better, and apparently concluded that it did relieve some of the stress.
They must have been spying on me last time I had to tink back about 15 rows of lace knitting with mohair yarn. :-/

I remember when my mom and her friend used to have sewing nights at our house and they would use the term PO'ed. Didn't know what it meant when I was young and laugh about it when I was older and found out it meant pissed off...lol

Its all in the tone of voice and the way you say it My youngest says Oh! Really? You will die laughing or head for the hills, she can put a lot of information in those 2 words. LOL

I had a college friend who would say "dirty words, dirty words, dirty words". Worked for her!
My personal favorite is "oh puhdiddle". Or if I'm having a moment of violence "I just wanna knock the poohwahdiddly out of xxxx".
A former roommate would say the Czech word for dish rag. It sounded very nasty! All those consonants...
