Cocks Alive!
A stoic expression that’s gaining wide acceptance and justified popularity. It’s used to express disbelief or surprise for an event that may have happened or a situation that one may have described to you that is quite unbelievable.
In a positive way… I won a scholarship to Stanford University for literature…Response from a friend… “Cocks Alive!”
Disbelief…I was joking and I was recently fired from my job for asking the customer if he wanted coffee, tea or me… Response from a friend… “Cocks Alive!”
Or things aren’t just going your way… you’re sitting in traffic for a good hour. You look at the time realizing that you’re supposed to be home and you say yourself…”Cocks Alive!”
