Every generation invents jokes that make perfect sense to them and absolutely none to anyone else — and today’s teens have taken that to a whole new level. The phrase “six-seven” exploded across TikTok after hip-hop artist Skrilla dropped his 2024 track Doot Doot, where he casually rapped, “6-7, I just bipped right on the highway.” Overnight, the number became a punchline with no meaning at all. Kids started using it as a response to anything — “What time is it?” “6-7.” “What’s that smell?” “6-7.” Its silliness is the entire joke, and Gen Z loves it precisely because it confuses everyone else.

But in schools, the trend has turned into pure chaos. Teachers say students shout “6-7” during math lessons, chant it during counting exercises, and derail entire classes with the meme. Some classrooms have even banned the phrase altogether. Yet the phenomenon proves one thing clearly: memes spread faster than logic, and kids will always find a way to make each other laugh — even if no one else understands why.
