You remember the two giants who see Thor lamenting Odin's absence?
It went like this (liberal paraphrasing):

Thor:	Odin is gone!
Giant:	Wow, didja hear that?  Now the storm giants can invade Asgard!

Giant:	Geez.  Let's go for a long trip into the mountains.

Now I can put up with Asgardians saying "Zounds" (supposedly "Christ's wounds"),
because that sounds great, but "Geez" (from "Jesus") ?  Just not Norse enough.
