This is a concept that has always puzzled me... I don't know which I find funnier: the atheist who exclaims the name of diety when they smack their thumb with a hammer... or the "devout" christian who does the same thing. For the atheist - why not just yell out "Richard Dwakins" or "Daniel Dennett". Or just some random name. If God isn't real and Jesus was just some dude... why exclaim their name ever? Why not simply yell "Justin!" or "Avocado!"? For the devout... well... it's just funny.Taking God's name in vain

I am going to try really, really hard to start yelling “Avocado” when I’m exhasperated.
