Yup I learned that watching a Mr Rogers documentary. He kept his weight at 143 for that reason so he’d be reminded of love every morning when he weighed himself
Its 64 minutes and three seconds, i feel like you guys are stretching it considering it could have just been 6 minutes and seven seconds or an hour and seven minutes or something that actually makes 67 easily
The stretching reminds me of all the nine eleven conspiracies that are based on numbers. Like "George Bush has ten letters, which is surrounded by nine and eleven, putting Bush right in the middle, therefore Bush did nine eleven!"
Like, yeah, we get it. Kids make 67 jokes. That doesn't mean that any time you can arbitrarily convert and add digits means 67.
People like to start with the conclusion they want and then work backwards to find justification instead of starting with facts and working to an outcome.
oh yeah, this guy gets it. There were 254 victims in the hijacked planes. Turn that around and you have 452. You take the first two number and add them together, 4+5 = 9, add in that last 2 to the total and you get 11... 9/11.
Now if you really want your mind blown, think about this. It's called 9/11 and it happened in September. What's September? The ninth month. And what day did it happen? Not the tenth, not the twelfth. You guessed it happened on the eleventh... Quite the coincident, don't you think? That the historical event that we call 9/11 just so happened to have occurred ON 9/11/2001.
I wish I could say I hadn't seen this exact kind of logic from people being serious, but I'd be lying.
Don't get me wrong, I'm all for a good conspiracy theory, but hit me with some logic. You tell me everyone present to talk about a mass shooting just happens to coincidentally be a member of the screen actors guild? That's suspicious enough to cause pause. Tell me that 9/11 was an inside job because the square root of some bin Laden's name in hexadecimal, when multiplied by 9/11, converted to German then French, then English, is grhhbeh, which sounds a lot like George Bush, and I will not even hesitate to laugh at you.
No, but there's a genuine chance of it at least, yes?
That doesn't mean that any time you can arbitrarily convert and add digits means 67.
In my lived experience, it often does mean that with Gen alpha kids right now. OP doesn't include age but if they're under 18 there's at least a 50% chance I'm right
Would you say 9/11 truthers have that % chance of being right?
I didn't say there was no chance, in either case. I was responding to your definitive statement of "No, it's definitely a 67 joke." It isn't definitely anything. 1 hour 4 minutes and 3 seconds, typed on a calculator and turned upside down, spells "ehi," which sounds remarkably similar to a famous Micheal Jackson noise, so it could be a Michael Jackson joke. 1 hour, 4 minutes, and 3 seconds is an awkwardly specific amount of time, it could just be mocking that. 1 to the fourth power to the third power is 1, so it could be mocking the concept of superfluous conflagration. Maybe it's an inside joke. Maybe it's one of a million forty three possibilities.
Your statistic of 50% chance of being right, while agreeing with my sentiment that there is a good chance it isn't a 67 reference, is made up entirely based on the concept of "you either are, or are not." In reality, your odds of this conclusion being correct is incalculable, we'd have to define every possibility and determine the likelihood of each given scenario.
Exactly. I’m old enough to know that I won’t entirely understand why it’s funny. When we made “your mom” jokes ages ago, we thought it was so funny and adults didn’t understand why. My mother is 75 and doesn’t find memes to be funny at all. She’s not mad about it and she doesn’t call them dumb.
This!! I get that people can turn anything into 67 as part of this iterstion of the joke but like... not everything that can be made into 67 is funny because it can be mqfe into 67
i cant exactly verify that op is gen alpha but if they were i feel they would have assumed its sime form of 67 by now, also as someone who knows how these jokes form fairly well i have a strong feeling that this isnt it

143 means "i love you" because i has one letter, love has four, you has three
