      Huh, I had never considered deaf slang before. Is there somewhere to read up on this?

    If you’re gonna include 23 skidoo… You should include being at sixes and sevens:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/At_sixes_and_sevens

    67… Is very very old British slang for wrecked/confused, at odds, or hysterical.

    67 sneaking onto the ‘funny numbers’ list is hilarious—teens are basically a standards committee now.

      Bot account? Comments seem like your average “short and humorous response” bot.
