Unusual Words In Kids Shows!

 If You Enjoyed My Adult Content In Kids Shows Stuff, I Have Written A Post About Unusual Words In Kids Shows!

• In Milo Murphy's Law, the Pistachions use several plant-based euphemisms, like "Fertilize me". They call human characters "meatbags" and the humans call them "nut-jobbers".
  
  
  Random Pistachion: Well, it does kind of describe us, but that's just rude!
  
  
  
  
  • In Pepper Ann, "Fuzzy" (the name of a cartoon character within the show's world) was used as a catch-all euphemism ("What the Fuzzy?" "For the love of Fuzzy..." etc.)
  • My Life as a Teenage Robot used “Thank Jobs!” and “By the great Cluster Hives, it’s XJ-9”!
  • Sponge Bob Square Pants
  • SpongeBob and his friend Patrick use "Tartar Sauce", "Fish Sticks", "Fish Paste", and "Barnacles" as their favored exclamations. One would guess that, to a fish, tartar sauce would be pretty shocking. "What the shell" and "What the halibut" crop up occasionally, too.
  • The word "barnacles" seems to be their equivalent as it's sometimes used like "this is a load of barnacles" and "you're full of barnacles", in another example Mr. Krabs had given on ever being able to do something and SpongeBob says "Barnacles!" and Mr. Krabs says "SpongeBob!" as if he said a very bad word and SpongeBob says "Sorry about the foul language, Mr. Krabs". However, in the song, "Barnacles", on the CD "SpongeBob On The High Seas," it's established that "barnacles" isn't actually considered profanity by the characters, but is used as a euphemism in-universe.
    Chorus: "Barnacles is the way we say what they say we can't say."
  • Also in the song, Mr. Krabs says he "kissed his assets goodbye" after losing money in the stock market

  
  

  • Freakazoid! uses "Aw, nut bunnies!"
  • In a later version of the Care Bears franchise, Grumpy frequently uses "grumbly" expletives such as "Bumbling bittlebots!" and "Galloping gearbox!

  
  

  Animaniacs: In Goodfeathers shorts, pigeons use the word "Coo" in  ways, such as "Coo you" and "Coo off". In one episode where one of their girlfriends leaves them for another, Pesto says to the new boyfriend "have you been cooing my girl?

  
  

  Phineas and Ferb has the following exchange. Of course, Candace means this entirely literally, but the street performers think her attempts to shake the rodents out of her clothes are dance moves and the song that they perform follows that logic.

  Candace: [screams] There's squirrels in my pants! 
  Rapper: Wow! That girl's got some serious squirrels in her pants!

  • There's also Major Monogram's Catchphrase: "Great googly moogly!"
  • In "The Secret of Success", Candace has left a leadership seminar early, before the presenter can give the final acronym of advice on how to realize her goal. She calls Stacy, who quickly mentions it's F.R.E.E.P.O. before hanging up. Candace paces back and forth, trying to figure out what that could stand for, when her little brothers decide to go to the moon in their rocket ATV. Defeated, she mutters, "Aww, F.R.E.E.P.O."
  • "Cheese and crackers!" pops up from time to time. Perry uses this to his advantage when fighting Doctor Doofenshmirtz, who has been granted Three Wishes. He's about to wish to rule over the Tri-State Area when Perry drops a bookcase on his foot and Doofenshmirtz winds up with an army of snack food.
  • Buford's Understatement when he and his friends watch a Zombie Apocalypse break out in the middle of town: "That sure wiggles my biscuits."
  • In "A Real Boy" Stacy hypnotizes Candace so she won't get distracted during her date with Jeremy, and chooses the most unusual euphemism she can think of as the control phrase — "Leaping Lizards". Their date is going fine until some random kid points out a springing salamander.
  • On his Character Blog "Doofenshmirtz's Daily Dirt", Doofenshmirtz decries the auto correct feature on his phone when it causes him to text Something That Is Too Much Assuming this was an Unusual Euphemism for something crude, Charlene filed a restraining order against him soon after

  
  

  • An episode of Home Movies has a veterinarian refer to euthanasia as "making cotton candy."
  • An episode of The Backyardigans called "The Great Dolphin Race" has "Jumping jellyfish!" as an euphemism. It also has "Leaping lobsters!" and "Holy cowfish!".
  • Clone High uses "Dinger!" where one would usually use a stronger word to mean Oh, Crap!.
  • Big City Greens uses kid-friendly nonsense gibberish in place of swear words, sounding almost similar to what is really being said (Blort, swip, cret, cuft, etc.).

   

  • The Mr. Men Show: Almost everybody has at least one that serves as a catchphrase of sorts for them. A few examples include "Aw, pickles" for Mr. Strong, "Poopity poop" for Mr. Bump, and for Mr. Fussy (Mr. Persnickety in Season 1), "Sweet Henrietta!"
