Far Out!
I was just reading this article that was written in Rolling Stone magazine in 1977 and I came upon a paragraph that really made me stop and think.
The room went dark and we watched the “lasers” light up the screen. The better ones were greeted with applause; the most spectacular ones got cries of “Wowie!,” “Whoopee!” and “Far Out!”
So they really did talk like that back then?
I still can’t imagine someone using the word “Whoopee!” as a serious exclamation though.
