If you’ve been on TikTok lately, you’ve probably heard the mysterious shouts of “67.” This viral meme has taken over social networks and even reached schools; teachers complain that students repeat these numbers everywhere. And now this trend is so popular that the creators of South Park are already parodying it.
The phrase “six, seven” comes from the song Doot Doot by rapper Skrilla. “67, I hit it right on the highway,” he sings in the song. The musician himself admits that these words have no meaning – that’s why, in his opinion, everyone keeps repeating them. On TikTok, the hashtag #67 has already amassed more than two million posts, and videos containing the phrase are receiving millions of views.
According to Forbes, some teachers are unhappy with the new meme. On social networks, they complain that students are literally obsessed with the numbers 6 and 7. Some teachers are trying to combat this and ban this expression in lessons, others, on the contrary, use it to attract children’s attention. For example, a teacher came up with a game: he says “six” and the class answers “seven”, after which everyone must be silent.
The scriptwriters of “South Park” could not ignore the new trend. In the last episode of the series, teachers at South Park School try to understand why their students “joined the cult of the numbers six and seven.” This isn’t the first time the show has made fun of internet influencers, but viewers are confident the parody is especially accurate this time.
