I was about to use the word "darnation" and I figured I best look it up first, I haven't had coffee yet this morning and I believed I had managed to invent a word.

Of course, the word has been around for awhile. On a whim I checked Wikipedia, cause I'll Wikipedia most anything I can, and I discovered that "darnation" is an example of a "minced oath". This is too fun, check out the link.

A popular oath in Utah is "Oh my heck!". See, we need to know these things.

You've got it all bass-ackwards....

The shizznit better clear out to what-in-the-sam-hill before the Bolsheviks hit the fan. I've heard of "tarnation" but not "darnation". Same diff? Egads! this is tough to follow!
