consarnit
Old-fashioned mild oath
Consarnit is a mild oath expressing frustration or annoyance, a folksy euphemism for "goddamn it." It belongs to a family of minced oaths—*consarn*, *dagnabbit*, *dadgummit*—that let speakers vent without blasphemy.
The word sounds rural and old-fashioned, now used mostly for comic effect: Consarnit, I left my wallet at home again.
