@JTT,
It is the shortest verse in the bible.
(John 11:35 )
And, as Robert has said, it is an ejeculation of the ilk of "Jesus Christ" and such.
However, I quite like the implication that the horror one has experienced is felt to be so great as to cause a putative alleged offspring of one of the manifestations of primitive humanity's fearful projections onto the screen of the illimitless void to cry out in anguish.
I could, of course, simply have said "bugger".

May I add a thanks for the assist in discovering that the Onion has become ONN?
Enjoying as we speak.
