I HATE(D) 67

Before we read, I’d just like to share: this rant was made about 3 months ago, when the 67 meme affected me more. I’ve actually gotten more used to it as of now, although I don’t like it still. Here’s an archival post to find out when I REALLY hated it! Excuse sections with missing information.

Also, sorry for not posting in a while, life’s happening. PART 3 to the Davis Family saga should be soon!

I mean...it's in the title, what do you think this is about?

So as about 1% of the people reading this know, a few months ago on September 7th, aka 97 day, I released a blog post discussing 97, my history of it, and some silly facts about it, which if you haven't read, go read it.

It's pretty well-known 97 is my favorite number. I never had a hated number however.

..until about a month and a half ago, when my uncultured behind found out...about the 67 meme. Which- more accurately is "6-7" since it's pronouced "six-seven", which-...is ironic, because if you recall, when I first went by 97Scratch, I called myself "nine-seven" instead of "ninety-seven".

Oh no...we're only one paragraph in and the similarities. have begun. Now, if you don't know what 67 is, it's another one of Gen Alpha's annoying trends as of late. Gen Alpha has been (admittedly unfairly) mocked for it's brainrotty culture, such as Skibidi Toilet, language like "gyatt" or "rizz", and it's short attention span. I'm technically Gen Alpha since I was born in 2010, but I prefer "Gen Z'alpha", as I incorporate both generational cultures.

But apparently, meme culture has devolved some much...even a 2-digit number...can become a meme. Which-...HOW?!? I'll let you know how.

Let me explain to you the STUPID origin of the 67 meme.

I HATE(D) 67'S ORIGIN

So about a year ago there was a song called "Doot Doot (67)", where 6-7 was used as a lyric. The context behind why is a bit ambigious, although it could be connected to police language.

It was later used throughout early 2025 by a basketball player, and sometimes used in reference to 6'7 basketball players. Because I lived under a rock I didn't notice this rise until it affected me.

In fact, the main thing I know this meme for dates back to MARCH of this year, where at a basketball game, a TikTok video recorded this obnoxiously Justin-Bieber wannabee blonde seemingly 12-year-old screaming "67" into the camera for-...NO REASON. And yet this kid's face has gone viral, known as "67 kid".

His real name is "Maverick Trevillian" by the way. Maverick Trevillian? Is he a 12-year-old or some sort of car selling agency?  This guy even managed to get into a South Park episode.

If it wasn't obvious... I. Hate. Him.

I don't actually hate him, he did nothing to me after all; in fact don't bully this kid, at the end of the day he is a bit annoying but he doesn't deserve to harassed or cyberbullied. Fame is a double edged sword.

Actually, when you look into it, maybe he does deserve a bit of hate. Y'know why?

Recently, he allegedly got into a crypto scam.

Yes. A CRYPTO SCAM!

How the hell did we go from obnoxious Gen Alpha memes to CRYPTO SCAMS?! Man- I'm done with this.

WHY I HATE(D) 67

We got into the general history of the meme, but now I want to highlight some incidents of mine and proof that this has gotten out of hand.

Let's start with how I found out about 67. It was through a joke on Discord out of all things.

First of all, there are MANY spammers using this meme on YT now, particularly with YTbers I watch, like Matt Neff and VP Awesome.

Just today, there was a spammer on Matt Neff's premiere video discussing A.I. Plagiarism, and I was heated because he even started a CHAIN REACTION. I had to block them so I could focus on the video. Why do these kids find this funny?

And look at THIS! (Censoring name to prevent harassment) This is one of my FRIENDS btw. Not even my friends side with me. Shut. Up. 

Here's another example of spammers at _:__ when VP Awesome was making a rant stream discussing YT's strange copyright rules.

This angered me because poor VP was clearly pissed, yet these annoying ass children came only to his stream to spam a stupid meme. I do know this kid's prolly like, 12 or something, but still...children like this should not be on the internet. Mothers, we do not give preschoolers tablets for a REASON!

VP Awesome also had this quote about 67 when he managed to stop spammers in a Daniel Tiger stream.

"Bro if y'all start spamming 67 in my shit you getting banned bro.

[spammers begin to leave]

HE KNOWS WHAT'S UP!!!

Anyway, outside of YT, people on Scratch an are telling me about this, and it's just...exhausting.

I STILL HATE(D) 67

So, at the end of the day, I'm aware 67 is just some silly meme that at the end of the day hurts nobody. I don't care if you like 67 or dislike 67, I'm not going to diss you for it. And this entire post was mostly hyperbole.

It's just that I will IMMENSELY hate 67 for probably the next few months it's relevant, and no one can discourage me. Who knows, maybe I'll look back at this laughing. I used to hate Skibidi Toilet, but I've chilled to it as well.

That's all I got to say bout 67. By the way, if you're wondering, no, I am not going to give you a list 67 things about 67 like I did with 97. 67 doesn't deserve it. I am that petty.
