It a dialectal thing really. But it's not a youngster thing, everyone says it

No explanation dude, it's just as it is.

The eternal venetians are to blame for this. In southern Italy no one says those things because almost everyone there is a real catholic.

I'm surprised Anglos don't have it, you are all so edgy yet never came up with profanity?

New generations say it, though I agree it's much more common in the north, I often even hear adults saying it here in Milan while in the South it's mostly young people and they don't say nearly as much

>especially youngsters
It's actually very popular with the elderly too, especially in the north-east. It's just a way to let off anger.
Tbh in the Littoral region of Slomemeia the blasphemous profanities are present only in the older generation, I've yet to see a youngster use it.

It's like how muslims say Allahu Akbar and Akhbar means mouse in Jewspeak. So to the Jews they are saying "God is a mouse"
