it is just a word to express feelings of surprise or concernAnswer It is a euphemism for "Christ". It was considered very bad form to blaspheme in Victorian Britain, so a number of words like "cripes" came into use so English people could swear without "taking the Lord's name in vain".
It's a modification of the phrase, "for Christ's sake" for people who are afraid to take the Lord's name in vain. (I think the rationale is that by substituting "cripes" for "Christ", you're not committing a sin. It's the same idea as saying "gosh darn it"). The phrase means: "I am surprised or annoyed by this" according to "The Free Disctionary". http://idioms.thefreedictionary.com/for+Christ%27s+sake
