YES>. I haven't seen the original since it aired. It reminded me of Ace Ventura, people would say "re-hee-healy" and "allllll-righty then". Don't even get me going on Chapelle Show's Rick James and Lil' John skits.
I will be saying "game...blouses" any time I win something, until the day I die, and no one can stop me. I see the eye rolls. It only makes me stronger.
I was so bothered by my kids obsession with the 67 thing until someone reminding me of this.
Also the amount of times we made new friends or found parties by yelling “I’m rich bitch!” Or “cocaines a hell of a drug” or “whaaat!” Into the night. If you heard a Chappelle Rick James yell or a Lil Jon call you knew to answer back and they’d be cool. Like wolves howling in the wind or some shit. We were probably even weirder than the kids now.
Like, almost everyone alive today in Western Society lives a better life than millionaires did 100 years ago. Medicine, air conditioning, desegregation, absense of ACTUAL facsism/Social Nationalism, transportation infrastructure, peer reviewed science, infant mortality, etc.
Things seem bad today because we are TOLD they are bad by a 24 hours news cycle that generates billions of dollars of revenue from clicks and ad sales.
In my high school graduation ceremony, the valedictorian was giving their speech, and she said something like, “you might be asking yourself in x years ‘what is your purpose?’ or maybe ‘what are you doing?’” And a dude near me, I’ll just call him Ryan, yelled out “What are YOUUU doing?!!” And it made the event. It was a party after that. Good times!!
That makes me a little sad. Those guys are right about the age I was when I had a lot of male friendships that mattered. It’s definitely gone down in ensuing decades but it was a magical time in my life
This came out right at the moment 50% of American adults had internet access at home (pre-cell phone internet, for you youngsters hanging about). Was this the first viral commercial? One of the first and one of the last. I wonder when Budweiser officially published it online. They first aired it in '99, so I doubt they even published online until well after it had already gone viral. I wonder how many other exclusive-to-TV ads went viral.
Viral for us meant every kid at school was quoting the same stupid catchphrase for six months. No algorithms. No hashtags. Just pure repetition until your parents wanted to throw the TV out the window.

It is funny but I couldn't handle how long that took to die.
GoonieMcflyguy@reddit
It was 6-7 before 6-7.
Open-Cryptographer83@reddit
I never encounter 6-7 in the wild. I only heard tales of its existence.
GoonieMcflyguy@reddit
It means you probably aren't around kids often. The Budweiser ad was cross generational. 6-7 is really for the children like Wu Tang.

6-7 ain't nothin to fuck with

Enough to where this was the first time I've heard this nonsense in about a decade.

When I see people bitching about the 6-7 trend, I laugh at their dumbasses because we had SO MUCH annoying shit!
PunningWild@reddit
My nieces tried to come at me with 6-7.
I retaliated and taught them The Game.

MyNameCannotBeSpoken@reddit
It's not the same.
Chapelle had context and everyone could point to the source and meaning
6-7 is just stupid and meaningless
Hairbear2176@reddit
And what sense does screaming "I am the Great Cornholio!" make?
the__ghola__hayt@reddit
It's necessary for when you need TP for your bunghole.
ImJustSaying34@reddit
True but this Wazzzup thing was equally as stupid as 6/7 IMO.
Maybe I’m biased tho because my friend’s dad stopped saying hello normally during this time and only said Wazzup. It was awful to the ears.
MyNameCannotBeSpoken@reddit
Your friend's dad was very cool 😎
ImJustSaying34@reddit
He really thought so
Hairbear2176@reddit
YEP! My mindset is that EVERYTHING fucking sucks right now. If it's something harmless that makes them happy, let them have it.
On the other than, there are a lot of people who cannot stand seeing others enjoying things.

I have never in my life had that many male friends at the same time.

We as a gender have a problem curating and maintaining adult friendships. It’s very sad, and I hope it changes.
