A police code that was used in a rap song and then made into a video about a basketball player who is 6’7" and then became a popular thing to say without any meaning attached to it.
Comment on Too soon?
toynbee@lemmy.world 3 days ago6-7 is a thing kids say these days, apparently. Like 69, 420, etc.; except so far as I’ve seen 6-7 is the height of a popular basketball player, a reference to a rap song, or possibly both.
I’m not going to attack it because I’ve made plenty of dumb references, but I don’t know enough to justify this one. My kid is too young to say this and I have no other connection to modern youth culture.
I’m not sure how the numbers connect to the image.

Ah, thank you. Definitely outside my generations lingo. Feeling like the old Simpsons man here; it happened to me too

Happy to be of service, but I feel like calling Grandpa Simpson (or Abe if you prefer) “the old Simpsons man” is doing him a disservice.

My Simpsons literacy extends only to memes I’m afraid. All due respects lol

Fair enough, just don’t forget to tie an onion to your belt.

Afaik 6-7 doesn’t actually have a significant meaning beyond “haha funny” so there’s that. It’s just late stage tiktok brainrot
