  Speaker 1: One oh six seven Light FM Kubby and Christine in
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: the morning, I said six seven, very bluntly on purpose,
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: because we're still trying.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: To figure out our nerves.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, six seven. Are there any teachers out there that
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: can help us here? Please give us a text at
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: four four three six three. Maybe Miss Chris is tuned in.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: That's ah Naomi's kindergarten teacher. I don't know if she listens,
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: but uh, miss Chris, uh, maybe you're dealing with this.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: Is it kindergarten level or is he?
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: Is it tire?
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: It's like the tweens and teens?
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: So what is six to seven?
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: Well, we've talked about this on air. I thought it
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: meant it's it's something they are saying, and I thought
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: it meant like Midland, like mid you know, like myth
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: it's six seven, But it apparently means nothing.
• 0:46
  Speaker 3: Right, and they do a hand motion like this six
• 0:49
  Speaker 3: six or yeah, they lift their hands up and down
• 0:51
  Speaker 3: six to seven. I don't know what it means.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: No idea, because I remember talking about it with you, Christine,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: maybe a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, and I acted
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: like okay, now I get it. But I drove home
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: going you know, that conversation we had. I really don't
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: understand it.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: I think we're trying to make sense of it, but
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: we can't. And apparently, now that we're back in school,
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: it's driving some teachers crazy. There's a teacher from Michigan
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: who posted uh saying, I've been teaching for twenty years.
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: I've dealt with all sorts of slang. Nothing has driven
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: me crazier than this one. So to combat it, she
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: requires students to write a sixty seven word essay every
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: time they say it.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Ooh, that'll shut them down.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Then we've got a teacher in New Jersey who said
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: every time her students yell out six seven and it
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: interrupts the class, their homework is to write I will
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: not say six to seven in class six to seven times.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Repeat offenders have to write it sixty seven times. Wow.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: See, if we knew what it meant, we wouldn't be
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: frustrated and we wouldn't be making you do things kids
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: if you told us what it really is.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Okay, so we're getting texts thank you four four three
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: sixty three teacher here, this is hilarious. I'm glad and
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: I am banning it from my classroom. That's from a
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: nine one seven nine oh eight says it's from an
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: interview with a basketball player. He was asked how totally
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: was and he said, I don't know six seven Oh.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Okay, how are like? How are kids using it in
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: a sentence? Can you give me an example? Kristen, no, like,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: how is it coming up?
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: Honestly is saying they just yell it out.
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: But this is what I don't understand because nine one
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: seven says it's from a song.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: Right, so see, nobody knows. They all have their guesses,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: but no one really really knows.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, nine one seven do you know how
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: difficult it is to be a music teacher and say five, six,
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: seven eight multiple times a day? And here's six seven
• 2:38
  Speaker 2: giggles every time I say that.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: I never thought of that. Yeah, uh well, keep text
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: and maybe we'll figure this out. Four four three six three.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: And they are confirming what Kristen's telling us nine seven
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: three that the hand gestures go with it makes them
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: even crazier.
• 2:53
