Hvordan er det en omskrivning av Jesus?

[Gjest]

Eufemisme. Hvis man gjerne vil banne men ikke helt tør.

"Jiminy Cricket!" or "Jiminy Crickets!" was originally a polite expletive euphemism for Jesus Christ. The name of the character is a play on the exclamation (which itself was uttered in Pinocchio's immediate predecessor, 1937's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs). Another way to say this is "Jiminy Christmas!", "Jeeminy Christmas", or "Jiminy Crispus". Another example occurs in the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz. When the group first enters the Wizard's chamber, they are startled by the Wizard's sudden thunder-and-lightning display, and Dorothy (Judy Garland) cries, "Oh! Oh! Jiminy Crickets!" (Garland also says the expression in her 1938 film Listen, Darling) Jiminy Crickets is also one of Howard Cunningham's catchphrase when something unpleasant or astonishing happens on Happy Days. Early in the twenty first century, further abbreviation of the "Jiminy Cricket!" expletive resulted in the conjunction, "Criminy!"
