There are many ways of expressing surprise.
Recently I was asked what I meant when I said ‘fucking spiders’ for no immediately obvious reason. I’ve no idea what the origins of this exclamation are but would hazard a guess that it has something to do with the surprise of seeing spiders copulating (a rare sight) or just the horror of seeing spiders. I’m kind of in love with the former idea. It’s just something I heard whilst growing up and have continued to use…because of my limited vocabulary.
Let’s think up some new ideas, or at least educate each other about different exclamations. I wonder what they say in different parts of the world.

I used to use the word “spiders” rather than swear. Over the years it became “F%cking spiders”.
Don’t know if I picked this up from another?
