Mathematics teacher Cara Beards bump herself for any comparison that the two numbers yield, knowing that her students will scream at her immediately. “Six Sevennnnnnn,” they scream with a palm-up, see the hand gesture that looks somewhere between juggling and melon handling. The meme tore over the internet and wasted in real life, especially at school. “If you like,” Hey, you have to do six, seven questions, “they start screaming immediately,” Six seven! ”, Says Beaden, who teaches the sixth and eighth pupils at Austin Peace Academy in Austin, Texas. “It’s like throwing cats to cats.” Now teachers avoid dividing children into groups of six or seven, or asking them to go to page 67, or instruct them to take six or seven minutes for a task. Six is ​​a perfect number, and seven is a prime number, but only a glutton for punishment would put them together in front of a bunch of 13-year-olds. Math teacher Cara Beard says that the numbers are pronounced before her students ‘such as throwing cats to cats.’ The meaning of the meme (and his whole point) is that it has no meaning. Maybe if French philosopher Albert Camus had a tapping, he could explain it, given how well he understands repetitive cycles of senselessness. But Reddit also works. “The fact that six seven is not funny,” one person wrote, “is funnier than 67 itself.” The meme is an excellent example of brain rot, the internet moral food consumed by people of all ages to suck away time, productivity and the life of life. Children say ‘six seven’ for about – sorry – six or seven months since spring, but the recent return to the school continued the tendency. If ‘Six Seven’ was not anger, another meme would be. Not long ago, the phrase “Skibidi toilet” was inescapable internet snake. But six seven have more access points in the actual conversations between teachers and students. Social Studies: The Summer of Love, the country’s hippie moment, took place in 1967. Science: Carbon is atomic number 6 on the periodic table of elements. Nitrogen is 7. Geography: The world has seven continents but only six with countries. Religious schools get a catchy one: God created the universe within six days, says the Bible, and rests on the seventh. Six Seven is a generation within -joke. Recently, a lot of young people filled an in-a-burger and waited for the announcement of the order number 67. Athletes who are either 6’7 “, or wear the number 67, hear six-seven screams of children. It brings random joy from pain scales to parking garages. include. ” Phrase “Six Seven”, a reference to 67th Street in Philadelphia, where many of his friends grew up. In March, the meme continued in the youth culture with ‘The 6-7 Kid’, a viral video of a boy with a forward hug hair walking around the camera and delivering a six Six Seven with hand movements. That this one moment became so central to the rage-it was out of the middle of a 36-minute basketball video made almost as little sense as the rage itself. The meme was great for at least one person: Scrilla. He is now tackling places on a tour whose highlight is the six-seven line in ‘Doot’. The 26-year-old rapper likes how something came universal from a grim song about the street life he didn’t even intend to release. He leaked it as a reflection late last year. According to most accounts, the rage backs until late last year and rapper Crilla. Scrilla does not elaborate much on the interpretation. “I never put a real meaning to it, and I still don’t want to,” he says. “That’s why everyone says it.” He sounds delighted about the classroom Mayhem that the phrase is inspired. Asked if he has a message for all the children screaming “six seven” at school, instead of paying attention, he replies, “Six Seven.” Some teachers find the only way to stop six seven is to say it themselves and thus kill it with their uncool. On social media, Mathematics Faculty describes Chatgpt to set up tests where each answer is six, seven, 67 and so on. Sean Rainville says there is some relief that 67 is not charged with sexual innuendo such as the previous favorite number of the middle schoolers, 69, “It is very close to the leading toddlers’ previous favorite number, 69,” Sean Rainville, a Math Youtuber, says of the figure who was once charged with no rival in the number. “There is some relief for teachers that this meme is not sexual.” Astronumerologist Jesse Kalsi, author of “The Power of Home Numbers,” calls six and seven “a very unconventional energy” that is somewhat unaware. “It has a meaning,” he says, “but it’s very hidden.” Beard, Austin Math teacher, says she usually tries to find the humor at the moment. If you show irritation, it will only get worse, and she likes it if any numbers make her students laugh. The one who truly lost his patience with it is her son, Whit, a seventh class at Austin’s General Marshall Middle School who says the phrase interrupts all his classes. He tries to pull out when it does. “I’m just going to my happy place,” he says. Where is his happy place? “School before six seven.” Write to Ellen Gamerman at [email protected], catch all the business news, market news, news reports and latest news updates on live currency.
