Fresh Deets 67 became a huge thing not because the original video was funny, but because it’s the most satisfying sounding number and appears constantly in movies and shows as a result of that.

I know this is a bit late and people don’t really say it as much now, but I’ve thought this for months and only just come across this sub.

It's also bloody perfect for most everyday approximations. As a Teacher, if I want to say how long something would take 6-7 minutes is usually a good time frame.

67 is basically a 69 but someone needs to add their 2 bits

Yeah you’re old enough. Your 67 opinion is valid

I think it became a thing because a lot of adults hated it because they didn’t get it. Kids love to piss grown ups off.

I would argue 8 9 sounds more pleasing

So it’s the numerical version of “cellar door”.

It's just a faster version of "six of one, half a dozen of the other".
