6 x 7 = 42
The kids are alright.
They’re making fun of the Toronto Maple Leafs’ inability to win the Stanley Cup.
The number 69 has staying power. It was hardly new when it was used in Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure, and that was in 1989, 37 years ago.
How long will 6-7 last? I’m guessing not more than a year. I bet even now it’s being included as part of a script for a kids’ movie, and by the time the movie comes out the kids will all think it’s “cringe” (or whatever term replaces cringe).
Putting Gen Z slang in a movie, especially a bad one, is one of the known ways of killing it overnight.
Putting young-person slang in a movie has been a bad idea since before Gen Z existed.
I never could have seen the day coming when a number could out sell 69…
Especially in this context where 1969 is the moon landing and Woodstock year
67 doesn’t require the horny brain that is needed for 69. It’s the same level of amusement but becuase there is no sexual connection it can be understood more widely and also cannot be shamed in silence.
The game
:(
I just lost The Game.
69 made me initially wonder how sexual 67 was and why kids were laughing at another inappropriate sex number.
Learning It’s NOT a sex number, and honestly has no meaning at all, puts my non-horny brain firmly on Team 67. It’s just a giant innocent in-joke. I love it.
The ingredients for 42 ftw!
The ingredients for 42 ftw!
In both cases.
It’s six times nine
And can be understood by children
Hang on hang on
Has anyone else noticed it says 46th Anniversary, 45th Anniversary, etc? So this photo was taken in 2012, 14 years ago?
The vast majority of the kids that would buy this weren’t even born yet
AI slop, then?
Nah just a basic shitty photo edit
Are they distinguishable?
Well, you can do a shitty photo edit exactly how you want whereas getting AI to perform the same thing would likely be more difficult.
I found a search result that matched from 2013 facebook, but what the thing is there the 69 sign is sold out instead.
Yeah it’s clearly a terrible photoshop around the bars!

The world I grew up in no longer exists for way worse reasons than this. 😔
Execute Order 66
Not enough slot players outside of Vegas anymore
68? 70? 71?
The numbers that are there are 66,68,69 ,70 and 71.
This means the number 67 is sold out.
In the past, the number that would be sold was 69 because it’s a sexual euphemism.
Currently, 67 (specifically , 6-7) is a meme amongst young people, so I hear online. I live outside of wherever this meme is happening, and/or my child is too small for memes.Thus, times are changing.
Thank you
My wife works at an elementary school and keeps doing it, then apologizing and saying she’s on autopilot and I believe her. When I see my mother she does it to annoy me as is her right as matriarch. Right when they’re done doing it, I’m gonna start omg it is so stupid.
66 has connotation too. That’s why I listed the numbers for which I didn’t know the connotation.
…
these are ascending numbers.
What’s the connotation?
anal sex
I am guessing they are supposed to be your birth year.
I mean 69 was a great year. Stonewall, Apollo 11, Woodstock… and that was just the summer
Those were the best days of my life
-2
Nice.
I’m gonna go drink till I throw up
People who are still sad about 69 losing here have no imagination or at least no physiological flexibility
