Another case for the jury

I feel so seen! :-P
BTW, 42.
Cant forget the meaning of life and everything.
As a dad who tries to connect with his kids, I made a 67 reference last week. Their response: “Oh Dad, 67 is old now.” Kids these days can’t even commit to the bit. 🤣
You made it old when you said it. Could you imagine your own parents making 420 jokes?
I’ve referenced it a few times in the past and they didn’t complain. Oh well.
This is why I cannot dislike the 67 meme. I don’t actively like it or anything but we have our own funny number and there were 42 as well and 21 for a while.
There are definitely things to criticize about the new generation, I am not denying that, but finding a number amusing is too inoffensive for me to care.
6 x 7 = 42
Mind blown

Wait, I didn’t get this one
It’s not a calculator thing. It’s an old instant messaging thing that spells PIMP.
Oh!
Dont get me started on skibidi toilet!
Our glorious Gmod videos
Their horrible SFM animations
I legit enjoy it and think it’s a fun commentary on legacy vs contemporary media.
I love the fact that I never turned into this guy that hates the new stuff. I wasn’t hating fidget spinners when everybody hated them, I liked Fortnite, I think skibidi toilet is fun and such. But just as I didn’t like some trends when I was young myself (e.g. I never wanted to join the Gangnam style dance), I do find it disappointing that 67 is so popular, because I loved the fact that 69 is funny because of sex.
Atleast 69 had a context. 67 literally was a kid spurting out a random number.
But I mean, the same is true with E. It was a random letter. And there have been other random funny numbers. I just don’t like it because it “hurts” 69’s status of the funny number xD
I just kinda assumed it was a mix of memes “why was 66 afraid of 67? Cuz 67 68 69” Ba-dum-cha
Im with you on this. I’m in my mid-40s but I work with a lot of 19-25 year olds so I am still exposed to a lot of current memes/slang/whatever. There’s only been a couple that I thought were absolutely stupid.
I don’t know what “based” means, and at this point I’m too afraid to ask.
It’s the opposite of “cringe”
Hardly, the use of based this way is cringe.
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/based
(Internet slang, originally 4chan slang) Admirable for rejecting political correctness or socially progressive values. Synonym: unwoke based and redpilled My last account got banned for being too based.
well that’s what it originally meant
I’ve mostly seen it referring to other things, sometimes non-political things and sometimes political things but as a positive statement about something progressive
So based
Is this where I say six seven? Am I doing it? Do the kids think I’m cool yet?
There is a point where random noises become a song. Disposability of culture is, to my eye, a novelty that hasn’t yet reached the point of becoming a song. It’s just random noises, and I want to silence them with a heavy pipe to the throat

69 > 67
Could say the same for:
Politics.
Religion.
Ethnic groups.
Sport teams.
Cola preference.
Cutting some bits off your genitals or not.
Operaring systems.
Humans are a hoot, huh?
The first three things you brought up are the concepts literally criticised by the unedited original cartoon.
Ok, and I’ve never seen that.
Politics at its root is ideals about how to structure society though. It does, however, devolve into a team sports mentality in a lot of cases, which is I think what you’re getting at.
Yea, several of those things have actual qualitative and quantitative measurements on which they can be compared, but far be it from the common dingdong to think in such lofty terms…
Wait, who the hell is pro genital mutilation!?
… Oh wait, Jews do circumcision… siiiiigghhhh
(I’m also aware some areas of India/middle east do FGM too, but I don’t remember if it’s for anything close to religous reasons)
Circumcision happens all over. It’s popular in the US, Africa, and Middle east especially.
Getting roasted because people don’t want their dingdong cut off… +1 for accuracy though.
Yeah, right? Because saying something exists and showing evidence makes me a terrible person somehow?
Not only Jews, also US Christians for some reason.
