Meanwhile school children are saying 67 to each other as hype

6-7 is different.

Everything else was a reference to something. It meant something, it had implications. You could play around with it

6-7 is meaningless. It's not even a subversion of a meme... It's just a noise

6-7 is the same as Damn Daniel or What Are Those, it's just repetition of a viral meme

Damn Daniel and what are those convey information... Thy're references to media. Referencing media has meaning that changes with context

6-7 comes from a trap rap video and is meaningless even there. And saying is isn't even really a reference to that music video, if you ask the kids what it means they'll say "nothing"

They literally mean nothing by it

it doesn't come from the rap video lol, it's literally just from a viral TikTok. and does what are those or Damn Daniel really convey information? As I remember it, people would just say it as a vocal tic because it was popular to say. If an adult asked what I meant by it, I'd also probably say nothing.

You're old man yelling at kids to get off your lawn levels. Let the kids have their stupid vocal tics, they'll move onto something else in a few months anyway.

You're just wrong, this has been chased down because it's so odd, it came from a music video

And damn Daniel references the skit it came from, it has something to do with what someone is wearing. You can just say it, but then it is a verbal tic

I think that's actually a good way to put it. Verbal tics aren't funny or interesting, and 6-7 is purely a verbal tic

it was chased down by AI on the internet lol, by suggesting it's a reference to that it kinda proves you don't know anyone with kids. It's from a viral basketball TikTok

Damn Daniel is just a reference to a stupid fucking internet video. What information does that convey? A video exists?

It's an inside joke. When something reminds you of the joke, you reference it in a way that might not be meaningful unless you're in on the joke

There's no joke here. You're not remembering something funny and connecting it to the current situation, it's just a thing people do sometimes now

It is a reference to a meme and there is a lot of room to play around with

Has every gen Z forgotten that laughing at meaningless numbers was a whole bit in an early Spongebob episode?

Let us pray they do not form a brain rot alliance with the chimps.

Beauty is pain. Fashion favors the bold.

1976, chimps crack open the spring runway season with rustic grass earings, embracing eco-design.

1978, Vultures, unlikely contenders in the birdsphere, shock the fashion world by plunging themselves headfirst, literally, into colour.

Then, after four long years of (shocker) decorator crabs dominating the covers, the orcas, just when we thought the monochrome mammals had nothing new to offer, seize our fall lineup with dead salmon helmets. A statement on the cold war? On Vietnam? The rapidly decaying environment? The orcas refused to comment.

Chimps, forgotten but not forgetting, know they need to step up if they're going to make waves again. Beauty is pain. Fashion favors the bold.

Fashion always come in and out of style in a cycle, so that makes sense.

So why is it always post ww2 stuff? When are hobble skirts coming back for women and straw hats for men? I want that Ponzi look!

In fact, the researchers suspect the chimps learned the behaviour from people — the ear part, that is.

Uh huh. Only the ear part.

Jane Goodall was still alive when this article came out. It's nice to know she probably read about that, if not saw this live, before her demise.

Some chimp, “I bet you can’t stick grass up your bunghole.” Some other chimp, “oh yeah, hold my banana, watch this.” Doubtless.

And it's a high-intensity game designed for people everywhere!

I love you for directly linking the scientific article

Also there is this band that often plays with roses in their butts (sry, can't find a better link than old.reddit/let_3_had_roses_hanging/). So we def have the same mechanic, not just the same sense for fashion.

I've also read that scarves can mean something to street dogs (positive or negative), and speculation that them fancy rings we gift birbs to tag them might affect them socially too in some cases.
