What about the sceptical "WTF!"?
Or the ironic "O, RLY?"

Our mitigated gall?

OMFG

Swearing and vulgarity are a sign of intelligence, or at least a wide vocabulary

I say "Oh My God" when I find something unbelievable, or "OMMFG!" if I'm really riled up.

ONG! Oh, no god.

I use By The Earth! My friend and I came up with it, after lots of discussion how cursing and blasphemy were viewed by theists.

Oh My God are we seriously discussing the correct use of Oh My God???

Yeah, I do not believe in god, but I can still say the word! I do not believe in Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny either but I can still use the words because I am not an ignorant child who is scared of letters that form meanings!

Omagadz is my favorite way of using OMG ...i think it is funny!

You can use the same letters as satan, but I go with Oh My Santa!

I say, "Oh My Gob!" I think Finn says that on Adventure Time. lol

Since I work with children, and surrounded by them most of the time, I use, -Oh sugar, -Gee whiz, and -My goodness.

OMG= oh my gosh! But i use wow, incredible, well bugger me! To mix it up.

And the occasional shiver me timbers! When I'm feeling extra piratey 🙂

Christ on a cracker!

I wonder what God says when he's annoyed. "Oh My ME!"
Or Jesus when he's peeved. "Oh my DAD!"

1

I still use OMG, Holy Shit and Jesus Christ. Old habits are hard to break. LOL.

ONG - Oh No God!

I worked with a religious woman who used "OMW" for "oh my word" just so she didn't even hint at taking her God's name in vain — despite easily being able to mean "oh my goodness." I didn't mind so much untill one day she spoke "OMW" and it sounded so forced and unnecessary, and was an obvious display of "I don't even say 'OMG' because that's what a good Christian I am." It was one of the few time I saw her wear her religiosity on her sleeve.

So, I don't really have an equivalent phrase. I don't want to go out of my way to have secular terminology for casual expressions. On the other hand, I avoid this phrase — mostly because I think it makes me sound like a teenage girl.

I use OMG and think Odin.

Oxygen + Magnesium (OMg). I use it all the time.

I still say ‘Christ on a cracker’

I have eaten Christ "the" cracker (that snack was the best part of church), but never on a cracker.

@Sticks48 it may be a peculiarly British saying; here a cracker can be one of two things, a Christmas table decoration that contains a little gift, paper hat and bad joke, or a savoury biscuit you put cheese on. I like them with a good blue cheese.

I like to throw a bone to the fundy anti evolution crowd once in a while.
