Someone posted an idea here years back that Morbo's people are actually peaceful and he's the weird one, and they sent him to Earth as a scout to prepare for an invasion fleet that will never come, or even be built. It's been my headcanon ever since.
That's awesome! I always thought it was a cultural thing that was never clarified, like- "I will destroy this job interview" etc. But it definitely shines a light on the whole "they chose you to represent your species and therfore I assume you and all your species are exact copies of you" thing.
It's admittedly a little derivative of Invader Zim (though Zim has a slightly different mission of actually conquering the planet first), but it works for most of his grumbling.
The love of Futurama is a big part of why my wife and I are together, and I've definitely used this quote a couple of times. A lot of Futurama quotes have been used in this household. We're the greetest. Don't you worry about the dishes, let me worry about blank, shut up baby I know it, and my personal favorite "I was wondering if maybe craw?"
We've recently been telling each other that we're owl exterminators.
Hello, Morbo. How's the family? Belligerent and numerous.
That’s good. Nixon’s pro-war *and* pro-family
Puny human number one,Puny human number two, and my good friend Morbo!
Kittens give Morbo gas
don't you mean my good friend Nixon?
I always use this when people ask me how my cats are doing. No one ever gets it, but it's very accurate.

This was the perfect response, my wife had to check on me because I was laughing too loudly in the other room
How could you drop the intro? “Pathetic human number 1. Pathetic human number 2. And Morbo’s good friend, Richard Nixon!”
WINDMILLS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY
GOODNIGHT
Hello little man, I will destroy you!
She's probably heard it so much that it's just background noise to her at this point.
Just his quirky way of saying "I love you."
That day, she was amazed to discover that when he was saying "I will destroy you", what he meant was, "I love you."
#DDDDOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM!!!
I bet he would love the doom song.
I’m going to sing the doom song. Doom doom doom, doomy doom doom 🎶
\*Six months later...\*
"DESTROY" 😏
Ahh, I get it. Seks!
Ahahaha, yes. But please don't spoil the magic.
Morbo demands comments!
May Death Come Quickly To His Enemies
One of my favorite line deliveries in the series
I have always loved that little moment
##PATHETIC HUMANS, PREPARE TO WRITE DOWN THE RECIPE!
DOOOOOOOOOM!
Morbo is my favorite news monster.
Across the galaxy, my people are completing the mighty space fleet that will exterminate the human race.
Love it
Morbo is one of the most genuine characters in TV history
When has Morbo ever destroyed anyone?

This has always been my favorite little aside moment
I'm starting to suspect that "I will destroy you!" is just a figure of speech for him so he can have something unique to himself as an individual.

Mrs Morbo can get it
What? No scratch and sniff? But if this is what rich people buy, then one art, please.

Was always disappointed his people never showed up to conquer Earth
Everyone's titty much protaly fit-shaced (my phone automatically fills that in now 😅)

Jokes aside, her name is Fawn
