NO ONE ever says, "Consarn it". I use the other 2 myself.

I've heard "darn tootin'" and "dag nabbit." A great uncle used to state "oh hecky darn." Have you heard that one? :P

no...I've never heard ANYONE say "Consarn it!"

that would be hilarious to me, but my grandparents don't speak english. and my grandmother doesn't say stuff like that

Never in my life have I heard anyone say any of those things...

No, both of my grandfathers died before I was born, my grandmothers didn't get too inventive, probably just said 'oh darn'.

I say "dag nabbit".

I never heard anyone in my immediate family use them, but my great-grandparents were all already gone by the time I was old enough to notice such things. "Consarn it!" seems the most dated. It had a currency in the first half of the 1800's, and Stephen Vincent Benet has Jabez Stone use it habitually in "The Devil and Daniel Webster." I've heard the other two a lot in movies and TV.
-
yea, and i have too, but it doesnt sound like the funny little characters on tv.

No. My gram was very old world, she would never say things like that.
