jiminy crickets did you see that?! a blueberry just flew by!!
an old term for not saying jesus christ, thus not using christ’s(g-d’s) name in vain and not breaking one of the 10 commandments or blaspheming. usually used with emphasis.

now people say: jesus!, jesus christ!, geez!, or geez louise! instead.

the term is older than the character from disney films: a talking, singing, and fancy-looking cricket.
