Growing up my sisters and I learned that saying Oh My God — was a very bad bad thing. Instead we were to say Oh My Goodness.
If we slipped up, we got the evil eye from our father. And let me tell you, that evil eye could really get you shaking.
We didn’t say damn or shit or any of the WORSE 4 letter words. I’m even semi-reluctant to write them out here without adding in @ or ! … for example crap = cr@p, and shit = sh!t.
I can’t speak out the @ symbol or say the ! mark either soooo I’ve come up with a solution.
My intention is to get the satisfaction that is felt when saying the words out loud at opportune moments without feeling like I should be sucking on a bar of soap.
So here is the answer. Replace the LAST Consonants in the bad word with the letter Z.
Examples:
- crap = craz
- shit = shiz
- f*ck = fuzz
- @ss = azz
I have been saying SHIZ forever now it seems. I love it. It’s sooo satisfying and ppl just look at me like I’m crazy, but hell. I don’t care.
I recommend everyone reading give this a try at home. Just scream out . OH SHIZ!! or Holy FUZZ!!. Seriously. Try it.


I use the farscape version of words: frell, yohtz, dren. oh who am I kidding, I can’t remember the last time I didn’t use the real words, lol
Hey, that’s a pretty good solution! Although sometimes, I just want to be naughty and use the words uncensored!
