Tell me one thing: When we drop something (literally or figuratively) and it breaks or damages or injures or hurts, why do we say, "Ooops"? Why are the words: "Ooops" "Darn" or "Gosh" or "Good Gracious" or "Shucks"? Mostly, "Ooops!!"

Are you sure there are three 'O's in Ooops I thought it only had two, thus making it an anagram of 'Poos' thus associating it with all the other colloquialism's for crap as in 'crap/poo I've started another crappy/pooey word association game'.

Why do some people, when told of a persons death, say "you're kidding"?

In Germany "Scheiße", "Scheibenkleister" or a simple "Aaaaaah!" will be said or shouted at the occasion.
