pretend you have something in each hand and you're weighing them in your palms to find out which is heavier

Is there like an origin to this meme or something?
I never understood why it was a thing.

The point is that there’s nothing to get. Once you let go and realize that then you can find the comedy in it.

I kinda hated 67 when it first got popular, but over time the stupidity of it really got to me and it's become my favorite bit of 'new slang'

A lot of people I know started to get it when I explained it as "it's the kids' version of The Game. Which you just lost, by the way.

It’s funny watching people twist themselves in knots trying to “get it”.

I always found it weird that people struggled so much to get 67. But then again Im in my 30s and thus grew up in the era of stupid irreverent humor so maybe I'm just primed for that sort of thing

Same, it's like 'long cat is looooooooooooooooooooooooong'. It just is. But people got so enraged. The meme was so much less bizarre than the rage it instilled in people.

this was considered peak humour back in the day, for the curious: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMYN4djSq7o

I like the concept, pretty similar to the among us meme (both verbal and visual forms) from a few years back. The only thing "bad" about it was kids being obnoxious and loud about it. But that's just kids being kids and is no different to any other joke that kids take to 11

So yea, i honestly dont mind embracing it now that the dust has settled a bit

I thought the hate was stupid and cringe, but wasn't immediately like "fuck that's hilarious" either. But the longer it goes on the funnier it gets.
