"Grody to the max" nghĩa là gì?

"Grody to the max" (tiếng lóng) nghĩa là lố bịch/kỳ quặc ở cái tầm, không thể tả nổi. "Grody" được cho là bắt nguồn từ "grotesque" (kỳ cục).

Ví dụ

As the Los Angeles Times wrote in 1982, “Grody is used to describe a disgusting object. Moon Zappa calls her toenails ‘Grody to the max,' which means disgusting beyond belief.”

She's a bubbly (năng động) mall rat with hair teased (buộc) sky-high. He's a charming punk (tay chơi rock) from the wrong side of the Hollywood Hills, and her friends think he's grody to the max. 

I love that you just used the word “grody.” That needs to come back. We need some more Valley speak in this world. Like, “TROS was grody to the max, fer sure. I know, like, gag me with a spoon!”

When Julie (Deborah Foreman) dumps her preppy (giàu có) boyfriend, the last thing she expects is to find love with the rockin’ Randy (Nicolas Cage). The future’s open wide for Julie … but when her disapproving friends find Randy to be grody to the max, she is caught up in a culture clash between her Valley lifestyle and her Hollywood punk (phong cách rock).
