    When my kid does 6-7 I do the same gesture saying 8-9. It also means nothing and it’s bigger, so “I win”. Annoys the hell out of them.

      I go with “Ya, 42 right? I love Hitchhiker’s guide. You are never going to go wrong with a guy Hitchhikers reference with me.”. And then I go for a high-five that never gets returned. This shuts the entire thing down in such an amusing way.

      “Why was 6 scared of 7? Because 7 8 9.”

      (that works better spoken, than in text. … 7 ate 9.)

    Because they have some meaning (and arguably, value) beyond “a number we choose to be a meme.”

    The minute enough people knew what 6 7 was, it lost the only value it had: being an inside joke and using it to exclude others not in the know.

    It’s just that 67 is lame. It’s a reference to some video so whatever, but the creepy thing about it is people are expected to laugh uncontrollably when they hear the number. And they do it because they have to do whatever social media demands of them.

    The whole 67 thing is cringey.

          It’s in reference to a book and a song or whatever.

          If you need to be reminded then you definitely need to book that exam.

              So it’s a crass cringe reference just like 67.

              (I’m being sarcastic)

              My point is that it’s just a reference too.

              The only difference being that it came up after you lot entered adulthood, so it’s a constant reminder you’re not cool anymore.

            You’re probably too young to know what 69 means I guess based on your responses, let alone ever had the chance to do a 69, so fair enough.

            And I guess weed is much more legal these days than before, so less need for a code number.

            42 is what you were thinking of with your first answer btw, and it’s the meaning of everything.

            1337 you might come across if you start coding. 1ts M0r3 0utd4t3d.

              So it’s a cringe crass reference.

              Which makes it better than 67 how?

                69?

                Most say it’s better because it has a meaning of some sort, even if crass. Kind of how “fuck” has survived hundreds of years because it’s based on a meaning.

                I know 67 is funny for it’s absurdism in meaninglessness, but it’s very likely it’ll be a fad that dies for the same reason, as future generations won’t give it as funny since it doesn’t have meaning. Things like 69, while crass, might still be picked up by an even younger generation, and 420 will probably stick around since it’s already been passed on multiple generations. 42? Maybe. It’s essentially a scifi trope, so it might stick around too, especially with AI becoming prevalent.

        Nobody goes batshit crazy over 69 or 420 tho. The reaction is just “heh.”

        67 would be fine if the reaction to it wasn’t so cringey. You’re reaction is no exception… you’re pretending that “those old people are out of touch and just don’t get it!”

        Nah fam, we all completely get everything there is to know about 67. It’s a dumb meme, there’s nothing else there. 69 and 420 are also dumb memes, and we all know that too.

        67 insists upon itself. It’s a really lame thing to attach any significance to.

      Humans don’t work like that. Geographically, some trends finish in the area they started before they even reach other areas, though the internet has reduced the time lag. But there will be people who get into it before it’s a trend, people that get into it because it’s a trend, and people who continue to repeat it after it’s a trend because they either like it or miss the time when it was a trend. It only dies off as those that hold on to it die off.

      So 6-7 will be with us for a long time, though it’s frequency of use could be on a downward trend.
