I've used 'criminey cripes!' as a very mild form of profanity for more than 35 years, after seeing it once in an 80s panel of Uncanny X-Men by Chris Claremont and Rick Leonardi. There's something so charming about the innocent way Rogue uses it, even as her invulnerability protects her hand from melting off against Colossus' buff metal bod.
I don't use it very often, but there are times in my life when a 'criminey cripes' is the only thing that will do.
