I find this actually annoying. I don’t mind that it’s meta or a reference to something I don’t know about, I mind that there’s nothing to play with except invoking it
It’s so meta it’s only meta, it’s a reference to white noise
A favourite pastime of every old fart is to tell everyone who can’t run away, how much better culture, music, memes, and life in general was when they were young, and how stupid, devoid of meaning, inferior current youth’s activities are.
You grew old and lost that sense of excitement you get being a group of young people, feel of comradery you get yelling nonsense in unison, being stupid to the same wavelength. That’s what that means. You may try to justify your nonsense because your adult brain doesn’t want to grasp the reality that you also was young and stupid so you try to feint some justification for it.
It’s a reference to Chappelle Show about how Rick James disrespected Charlie Murphy by getting his muddy boots on his white suede couch, and Rick James is like “Fuck yo couch! You’re rich, buy another one! Fuck yo couch!” while spreading mud on the couch. It’s about disrespecting you, but also dismissing complaints rather than actually admit you did anything wrong.
Back in uni when I’d go out drinking I’d be walking through campus and people would just randomly scream out “WHAT!'” And someone else would scream out “OKAY!”
Millennials losing their minds over this when we used to shout ‘fuck your couch!’ and Rick James, Bitch! all the time, before memes were a thing.
I suppose memes have always been memes, but they were simply auditory before
That’s a “catch phrase”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catchphrase#History
Oh it all makes sense now
Shady JD took that as a suggestion.
No, this one is uniquely incomprehensible
Heres the source

I also found “the game” annoying for comparison
Damn man, I was on a streak (totally joking while kind of being serious).
Thanks for the source though, I still don’t get it but I’m also still using the same ringtone I used when my son started school (he’s in college now).
Those words mean things. They might not make a lot of sense in the context we used them in, but they formed a thought.
6-7 isn’t even a semi complete concept on the surface of it. It’s literally devoid of any meaning at all.
I fucking dig it. Surrealist slang is the best. We had our own shit like that too.

Then explain it! What does 6-7 mean? Because even though people might use it wrong, “Fuck your couch” actually means something.
It refers to radio code “10-67” used by various public safety agencies:
Dead body found and/or fatality being investigated on scene.
Adjacent to 10-66 which instructs dispatch to notify the medical examiner.
It’s the classic gangsta rap boast of “check it out i murdered someone, I’m a tough hard-boiled badass”
The kids saying it out loud don’t realize that was what the rapper they’re quoting was referencing, though.
Does the hand gesture mean anything?

Never yelled random stuff. It was never a thing. And WTF is Fuck your couch never heard of it.

The equivalent of saying “Ayyyy” because The Fonz said it.
i’m sure there’s other folks here who remember No soap, radio!
We are living in the dumbest times imaginable, so I find this quite fitting.
In my day. we just quoted Monty Python and everyone would laugh at how clever you were. This is effectively the same thing.
No one expects the 6-7 imposition!

There were many "fuck yo couch"es too
Wait a sec… I never said that first one. JD is that you?
you’re breaking my balls with that
