Dammit or Damnit?

**Skitch** · 03-12-2021, 10:31 PM

Its time to settle some shit. I've tried to avoid grammar nazism (because its so tired, most of the time someone had a bad autocorrect and you can tell what they mean anyway), but where do people fall on this?

I see damnit as more forceful, dammit as more playful. Not sure why. I use dammit far more often, so I'll choose that.

Damnit just looks wrong to me. But you might be on to something, dammit does look more playful.

Pretty much exactly this.

well I guess this is growing up

**StuSmallz** · 03-13-2021, 01:17 AM

I prefer "Dammit, Janet!", personally:

**transmogrifier** · 03-13-2021, 03:22 AM

Damn it. Two words. This is the way.

**Yxklyx** · 03-13-2021, 04:24 AM

Am I the only one that says God Fuckin' Dammit? I don't know where I picked that up from. I prefer the rhythm compared to the simpler God Dammit.

I think I say "FOR FUCKS SAKE" more than anything else.

**Spun Lepton** · 03-13-2021, 03:40 PM

I'm with trans. Damn it.

And, Yxklyx, I say GFD all the f'ing time.

My cat walked directly across my face while I was sleeping the other night. I woke up and immediately called him a “dickhead,” which is weird because I haven’t said that since highschool.

**Skitch** · 03-13-2021, 03:43 PM

I didn't consider that. I dont think I can add a third poll option.

Edit: I meant for two word "damn it"

I do that.

**transmogrifier** · 03-14-2021, 04:01 AM

My go-to profanity is the simple "Fuck off!" which I deliver at everything - Chrome freezing, a late submission from a student that I will now have to mark, Trump opening his mouth etc. I'm also partial to "Jesus Fucking Christ" in particularly testy moments.

**Philip J. Fry** · 03-14-2021, 04:43 AM

I say "A la verga!!!" a lot

**Yxklyx** · 03-14-2021, 05:25 AM

I wonder where I picked it up from. Movie or TV?

I didn't watch much South Park. It must have been a movie but which one?

This is my go-to as well, or SHAZBAT! if I am in polite company.

**Dukefrukem** · 03-14-2021, 01:59 PM

Mine is "Fuckin- ___" where the underscore is either the name of whatever I'm pissed at, or I just say the first word, trailing off as if I'm GOING to say a second word but never end up doing it"

**kuehnepips** · 03-14-2021, 02:03 PM

Verdammt.

**megladon8** · 03-14-2021, 02:09 PM

I say "fucking christ" under my breath roughly 38 times a day at work.

**Idioteque Stalker** · 03-14-2021, 02:35 PM

"Fucking shit" is what comes out when I stub my toe.

**DFA1979** · 03-15-2021, 05:05 AM

This just reminds me of the RT poster Toby Dammit.
