oy vey
A Yiddish expression often seen on the Net and heard in the industry, it is used with more dread than surprise. It roughly translates to "Oh my gosh" or "Can you believe it?"
"Kapeesh" is another adopted Yiddish term (and a variation on an Italian word), often said as a question to mean "Understand?"
