Jiminy Cricket 

A phrase used by old white ladies who live in Texas in place of "holy shit"

Used when in a state of shock

Part of the Big 5; Goodness Gracious, What in the World, My Goodness, Oh My Word
**Playing Poker**
Linda: *Gets Royale Flush*
Mildred: Jiminy Cricket!

Jiminy Crockett, Prince of the Wild Frontier 

A secret project in development at the Walt Disney studio in the fall of 1956, following their massively successful Davy Crockett series. Drawn by animator Ward Kimball, sketches show Jiminy Cricket, featured in the 1940 film Pinocchio, in an oversized and skewed coonskin hat instead of his top hat, wearing a buckskin jacket and carrying a rifle in place of his umbrella.
Jiminy Crockett, Prince of the Wild Frontier, was a concept that refused to hop off the drawing board.
