Can be used in all the same ways as f*ck. (Noun, verb, adjective, what the smeg, smegging hell, etc.) When startled by a loud noise or something, I have been known to burst out with: "Goodness gracious sakes!" (Which made my roommate laugh very hard.) Another favorite of mine is "Holy mackerel!" although I've never gotten into the habit of saying it. My grandmother is infamous for saying "Oh my stars!" and "Heavenly days!" My managing editor talks about kicked puppies. "I will kick a puppy!" or "Lots of kicked puppies..." and my editor-in-chief uses the same thing, but with punched babies. And then there are some that I've collected because they crack me up: "You 19th-century spaghetti maker!" "You cream-faced loon!" "Go lope on a horse!" "Split my infinitives!" "Oh my giddy aunt!"

But some religious groups that have bishops who can marry. LDS Bishops are always married, for example, and there are married Protestant Bishops. But no, it is supposed to be funny because it sounds like you're going to swear and then you don't. Perhaps if you try saying out loud it will make more sense.
