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.

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.

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
