For example I say flumbuggy instead of the "F" word! What are other cute...or not so cute...ways to replace swear words.

I say "jar of Smuckers" instead of "motherf___ers"....this stems from a family joke. I was talking to my best friend about this gigantic jar of Smuckers jelly she had bought, and her husband ran down the stairs because he thought I was cussing her out. So now, we say "jar of Smuckers" when we DO mean the other word. :)

I sometimes replace the f word with "duck". What the duck is this?
I also have a friend who uses "pants" instead of the s word. It's pretty hilarious when she screams "pants!" It's such a completely random word to replace a swear word with that it's kind of cute.

I worked in a very classy little jewellery shop many years ago and i was always walking into the class counters and bumping my hips ( which back then didn't have the padding that they do now) ... and it hurt a lot.. so instead of %$^%$%!!! i would say FRUITCAKE ... don't really know how it started but that's the word that would come out automatically.
NOW however .. i tend to just BLURT out the word .. OOPS.
BUT i am impressed with FLumbuggy!

If I feel the need to swear there is no substitute for the word that comes into my head

"Oh goodness" instead of GD.
"Bless her heart" instead of F'ing *****.
"Sandwich eater" instead of almost anything else I might call someone.
I don't really worry about replacing swear words... they aren't really part of my working vocabulary anymore, so I am not stuck trying to come up with acceptable alternatives when an inappropriate word starts to slip out.

I've had to do this a lot because my son was picking up a lot of bad language from me (I'm from New York). My favorite is "flippin'"... as in "are you flippin' KIDDING me?"
Replaces another "F" word, obviously... LOL
