6-7 is really the dumbest meme I can think of

I turn 34 in two days, and by definition, I’m a millennial, but throughout my life, I’ve had characteristics that might be ascribed to stereotypical boomers. Despite being an ultra lefty liberal who wants to see radical change in government and policy, I roll my eyes at certain changes in society or culture or what is in.

One of the high school sports teams I covered first brought the 6-7 thing to me and asked me to do the 6-7 gesture, and I so I went along with one time, and only one time with the gesture asking what this 6-7 thing is.

Then South Park touched up on it last week, and Cartman finding it the funniest thing in the world.

Then I did more research. It’s from a song by a rapper named Skrilla (and it’s not even a song I like. I don’t care for rap, but every once in a great while, there’s a rap song I do like, usually if it’s on a video game I play).

But this track doesn’t sound like much of a track at all. Then the song blew up on TikTok with a video referencing LaMelo Ball highlights, and some kid at an AAU basketball said ‘6-7!’ and everyone went wild.

Apparently, it’s the big thing at school, if teachers here agree. And a kid at an event when I worked a triple header on Saturday, asked if the game I was covering started at six or seven, which I said wasn’t funny.

It isn’t even that I simply find it not funny, because everybody has different senses of humor.

It simply does not make sense. I don’t get it.

When I was a teenager in the 2000s, I would wonder how cultured, how advanced and civilized our society would be in the 2020s.

Well, we’re in the 2020s, and somehow, ‘6-7!’ is all the rage.

I’ll take my ‘60s music and so many other stuff old school and vintage, please.
