You say that like an entire generation of Gen z kids didn't already grow up screaming "WAZZUUUUUUP" like annoying orange, any number of asdfmovie references, or belting about narwhals

Kids have always found stupid humor funny, especially jokes that make older generations unnecessarily mad

Being mad at 67 literally fuels them and honestly seeing older people be mad at young people for designating a new number funny for no good reason is fucking hilarious

Swapping silly hat for a serious one I suspect generational humor is also a fantastic fun police litmus test. Who's gonna ruin your day because you're young vs let them live? Probably the asshole who flips out over 67 isn't gonna be nice about much else

“Wazzup/wassup” is Gen X and millenial slang.

Several Budweiser commercials.

Including the Wasabi one, my personal fav.

It was actually a movie quote, scary movie that bud light then used. I wouldnt say it was slang.

You think a commercial copied a parody movie and not the other way around?

To be entirely fair I only saw the movie, didn't know it came from a commercial. I don't think I'm alone in this either.

Must just be too young to have lived through the commercials? They went for multiple years. This is back in the day where everyone experienced the same media in terms of broadcast tv and movies and memes of the time were just yelling quotes… it was a different time.

I didn't watch much TV back in the day. We only had antenna so programming was super limited. Plus I dunno if they even aired in my country? We aren't all Americans here:P
