You got the first one wrong. It should be 5318008. You're supposed to flip the calculator upside-down.

As a 38 year old man I feel I'm allowed to say the best two are still 8008135 and 1337.

69 and >9000 are both etched into my brain though.

Fun fact for many.. "IT'S OVER 9000" was a translation error. It was meant to be 8000 as Vegetas max power output was 18k and so only Goku using Kaio Ken X3 was able to defeat him.

Where's 42? You can't just forget 42!

[–] JerkyChew@lemmy.world 4 points 17 hours ago

If you're going to use Alex Grey style artwork you should include "46 & 2".

[–] hansolo@lemmy.today 7 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

In no universe is 67 farther up the chain than 69.

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 1 points 9 hours ago

Nor all the number before it if you asked me.

[–] silasmariner@programming.dev 6 points 18 hours ago

And frankly 8008135 is top tier and trumps both

Boobies

Power level

Elite

Bush did it

Weed

Sexual reciprocity

Police radio code for a body

Private key for critical infrastructure

[–] heartSagan5@lemmy.zip 1 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago) (1 children)

Wait… “police code for a body?” So this started as some cop “joking” to his kid????? 🪦

[–] moonshadow@sh.itjust.works 2 points 7 hours ago

Police radio code in certain US cities to request assistance on discovery of a body. Rap slang referencing the same. Sports euphemism wherein a prideful victor requests said body management assistance for a defeated opponent or after a particularly triumphant maneuver. Viral tiktok of a child screaming the digits at a player during a game

And now, whether for a moment or a generation, the reigning funny number.

Like it or not ;)

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 54 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Even worse. Around 2006 it was Over 9000.

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I knew i missed something.

[–] GuyDudeman@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (5 children)

Yeah… maybe Y2K instead of 3000? And remove 19. Who says 19?

[–] DekSomBoon@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yea 19 should be 21 instead

[–] whyNotSquirrel@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

what's 21?

edit: oh, it's 10+9, the answer was in an other comment

[–] GuyDudeman@lemmy.world 1 points 22 hours ago

Yeah that is a meme I was unfamiliar with.

Careful now, a brain can only get so stimulated before it explodes, creating quite the goey mess.

[–] Tiger_Man_@szmer.info 3 points 1 day ago

[–] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

This is bullshit because everyone knows that 24 is the highest number:
