Source: Everybody Loves Raymond

Speaker: Frank Barone

Holy crap!

Context

This line is spoken by Frank Barone, played by Peter Boyle, in the TV show Everybody Loves Raymond (1996-2005).

Ray's father, Frank, wasn't the first person to give a religious blessing to a pile of dung, but he sure popularized the exclamation of surprise. He said it when the fridge door fell off; he said it as Santa Claus; he said it with a mouthful of pizza. Holy crap, he said "holy crap" a lot.

Where you've heard it

You've heard this in any surprising situation in which the person is polite enough to use the PG-rated crap instead of any other more vulgar alternatives.

We'd like to see you try to make this pretentious.
