a catchphrase
said by "that guy" in Futurama Season 4 Episode 9 (Futurestock) emphasizing his 80's style. Back in the 80's "Awesome" and "to the max!" were hackneyed quips that
people would spout to sound cool. Nowadays,
people usually say it for camp value... especially since even in the 80's it was slightly tacky...
FRY: (whispers to That Guy) Hey,
buddy... I'm from the same
time as you. Remember that song, Safety Dance?
THAT GUY: Sure do! We can dance!
(starts humming 'The Safety Dance' and Fry follows)
FRY: Y'know, that dance wasn't as safe as they said it was.
THAT GUY: I tell you; Two go-go
80's Reaganauts like us... we could rule this world!
FRY: No question!
THAT GUY: If only someone would give us a shot.
FRY: They're scared of our
raw power. Oh, but if you want a job, I could beg everyone at the company where I
work.
THAT GUY: Awesome. Awesome to the max!
