Using the right font, his current number checks all the same boxes.

So that's the real reason why he wanted to win the title!

Eagerly waiting to see Max pull up to the grid of the first race next season in a 69 car

Yeaaah… if you ignore 96, 8 (with proper font) ~~or 88~~ (maybe too nazi?), then that’s the only and legit reason to go for it! :D

Mm but that would work only like ||? And then it looks like "2"

[–] Sylvartas@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Tbf you do have to ignore 88.

[–] Etnaphele@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I wanna be fair: why ignore 88? :)

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 6 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

It's apparently neo-nazi code. The eighth letter of the alphabet is H, so HH, Heil Hitler.

I didn't know either and had to look it up.

[–] Microw@piefed.zip 3 points 6 hours ago

It's probably more well known as Nazi code in centeal europe than in other parts of the world. No one in their right mind in the german speaking areas would use 88 in their personal marketing.

[–] Etnaphele@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

I also did a quick search, and somehow oversaw the Nazi connection among the innocent other words...

88 is a natural number with various mathematical and cultural properties. It is also associated with fortune, love, neo-Nazism, hip hop and time travel.

The new meme number is 67 though.

[–] Etnaphele@lemmy.world 5 points 7 hours ago

He’s too old for that

[–] Honytawk@feddit.nl 3 points 6 hours ago

Doesn't work upside down though
