Modification of the term god damn. Comes from the midwest, as near as I can tell - my grandfather (an Illinois native) used to say it a lot.

Note the term is always used as an adjective, and NEVER as a verb. So you can have (day) a dad gum toll booth attendant, but you don't dad gum the toll booth attendant. The only exception to this rule is that "Dad gummit" is a suitable substitute for "goddammit"

dad-gummit 

"gumming" something was a reference to chewing on something, popularly it used to be a reference to toothless old hillbilly men arguing with each other. Today it's used as a term of disgust, along the line as, "oh, for Pete's Sake!", or, "For crying out loud!". It's proper use is more along the lines of, "shut up!" as in, "go chew on something to keep your mouth busy so you're not bothering me."
