Down in South Carolina we say "hose pipe" which can mean anything from the hose nib to the hose itself all the way down to the hose sprayer.
I still say "Jiminey Crickets" when I really want to cut loose on the cussin'. Sometimes I'll through in Dagnabbit, more now with the popularity of the Geico farmer.
One time my dad banged his finger with a hammer and yelled "Dog bite a rabbit" but I never figured out what that meant.
Oh, and "You don't know sh#% from Shinola." That is old.
A friend of mine used to say "Better to be an old man's darlin' than a young man's slave" but I'm beginning to differ with her on that one.
And no one I know from the south really says, "Kiss my grits." That was just on TV.
