“The Gallup Poll just announced that 69% of our great citizens expect their finances to improve next year, a 16 year high. Nice!,” the President boasted.So he didn't kill it. The headline is wrong. He energized it by making it even stupider.
As the social media savvy are already aware, it’s common to reply to mentions of the number 69 — code for a certain sex position — with the word “nice.”...
“Trump did a 69/nice tweet, which means I'm never going to do one again,” one [Twitter] user wrote.
Others have declared the gag over.... But some vowed to keep the trend going, claiming Trump has only made it stronger. “Trump making 69 jokes dumber only adds to their power...we must never stop,” a guy who goes as Shaun tweeted.

Trump disturbs The Daily News by showing his awareness of a sex-related meme.
I'm reading "Trump just responded to '69' with 'Nice!' — effectively 'killing' a popular sexually suggestive meme trend."

Every generation re-invents sex.
This one turned it into a meme.
-XC
PS - I will say that certain types of sex which were *very* hard to find when I was out and about seem much more common now. I suspect that is also a cycle, but I am at work and there are certain things I can't Bing.
Soixante Neuf would be more nuanced.

It's like Mindfulness or Leaning In. Many more people talk about it than actually do it.
Guy at a Bruins game had a game jersey number 69 with the name Eaton. Nice!
Wait until Trump sends out a tweet at 4:20 on April 20.
I'm not sure he's aware.
Is it still OK to use the OK symbol?
The SJW exegetes spoil all the fun
Hmm...any indication Trump has any awareness whatsoever of a 69/nice! meme. I'm on the internet quite a bit, and I wasn't aware of it. Isn't "nice!" just a way of bragging about good economic news under his administration?
p.s. 69 is the most overrated sex position known to man
Bryan Adams had a song, Summer of '69. Nice!
Some time a "nice" is just a "nice".
And, if not, who gives a damn. Geez has EVERYONE been given an electron microscope set for outrage?
Trump is the stupidest. Nice!
"As the social media savvy are already aware, it’s common to reply to mentions of the number 69 — code for a certain sex position — with the word “nice.”..."
Says who?
I mean, some sort of Beavis-ish reply, sure, but specifically "nice."?
Might be today's trend among a few people, nothing special.
Some day, they're gonna write a book about the man's genius.
...permission to land like a dainty butterfly.
96 gets hardly any mention.
I'm mostly pretty up on the memes of the day, but I never heard of this one, and I doubt Trump has either, but he always has a way of winning, often seemingly by accident - the luckiest SOB I ever saw, or maybe just a God Emperor.
The beast with two fronts.
"96 gets hardly any mention."
That's the popular position after your wife has a baby.
My high school class was the Class of '69.
It was funny for us for a little while 50 years ago, but you have to be an idiot to go on and on about it.
It's pronounced "noice!"
US Highway 69 runs two blocks from my house in Kansas City, the signs have been disappearing since I was in junior high in the mid 1960s.
96 gets hardly any mention.
When I was eight my mom sewed me a football jersey and asked what number I wanted on it. I said "69." Mysteriously she heard me say "96."
Once upon a time Trump might have tweeted that 70% “of our great citizens expect their finances to improve next year, a 16 year high. Nice!” (and it is, bottom line, a nice thing) but after all the bullshit he got from self-proclaimed “fact checkers” over saying that one out of every three female illegal boarder crossers was raped when the true figure was a bit over 31%, I can see him sticking to Gallup’s precise figure.
In this era of fake news the first thing to ask is whether responding to the number 69 by saying “nice” really is a thing, or is it something that is a fad only within certain circles — or perhaps even made up on the spot to throw some shade on good economic news?
Secondly, like me, Trump is a septuagenarian. I had never heard of this meme before and I rather doubt Trump has, either.
Third, this really is great economic news. Trump’s economic policies continue to win for America’s middle class.
And, fourth, Farmer is right about the position being overrated.
69. That's some old school winkwink.
There was a parody Peanuts cartoon with Lucy and Charlie Brown, I think heads at opposite ends of the bed and foot to foot in the middle, "What's so great about being in bed together?"
Wrong number.
Geez has EVERYONE been given an electron microscope set for outrage?
I've said it before. I'll say it again. Leftists are the most miserable people on Earth. The only good thing about it is they deserve their misery.
Somebody said 69 was like going Dutch Treat.
" The only good thing about it is they deserve their misery."
I just wish they'd shut up about it so I can't hear them.
US Highway 69 runs two blocks from my house in Kansas City, the signs have been disappearing since I was in junior high in the mid 1960s.
The mileage markers for 420 and 69 on some roads have been moved slightly, so they say 419.9 and 68.9.
Sung to the tune of "Love Potion # 9", more or less -
Angel Number 69
"When angel number 69 shows up in your life, it is a message from your angels concerning the attainment of your aims and the fulfillment of your potential.
Angel number 69 may appear in many different ways, so it is important to remain open to the messages Spirit sends to us."
I learn something new every day.
In other words; how can we spin this great news for Trump into something bad? Let's complain about his happiness regarding the good news.
Those who think that just reveal their provincial biases.
96 is the position the dog takes up on the bed. It's a way to keep guard.
oh good grief:

"As the social media savvy are already aware"
I was not. New to me. Is it a gay thing?
"p.s. 69 is the most overrated sex position known to man"
This is true even when one of the pair is female.
Its definitely a "trying hard" thing.
I'd have to look it up but my recollection is that the South Park "niiiice" joke was in response to news that the kid/kids had sexual relations with a hot teacher, not specifically to that sex act itself. Given that I've never understood why the South Park "niiiice" .gif is so frequently used as a response to anything with the number 69 in it.
Possibly a Mandela Effect error on my part or maybe on everyone else's.
"p.s. 69 is the most overrated sex position known to man"
Thay say that sex is like pizza. When it's good, it's very, very good, and when it's bad it's still pretty good.

Ha. Probably truer for men than women. Very few men have to fake orgasm to get it over with.
Is the acutely phobic response because he's old?

Yeah, and there's pizza I wouldn't eat twice.
The worst thing about 69 is the view.
How did our society get so stupid?
tcrosse said... Soixante Neuf would be more nuanced.
In which case, the reply should be: Nice
Will Rogers once wrote a column datelined Nice. He said that's Neece, a city in France. The French don't have a word for "nice".
Tell that to Rob Gronkowski Mrs. Meade!
I once saw a license plate that read "LXIX".
Lost on the current generation, I would assume. And, apparently, also the DMV.
my father's favorite joke: "what is the square root of 69? eight something."
my mother would say, quite bewildered, that her husband would tell his friends jokes that were just numbers.

I wonder... what does MIke Tyson think?
Another old joke ... "What's the speed limit of sex? 68. At 69, you eat it!" ... har har.
More Gay sex slang. Or is it old boomer sex slang?
Yawn.
@rcocean:

It's a lot older than that. It goes back to the French phrase soixante-neuf from the late 18th century.
"soixante-neuf"
Its the response of "nice" in that regard that seems to be the modern affectation.
Which I had never heard of.
@buwaya:

The whole "nice" thing is just a play on the fact that 69 has the double meaning. Basically someone tweets something that includes the number 69, and you reply "nice" as if the person was using it in the sexual context. Pretty lame, but the "nice" isn't any kind of new slang or have any double meaning.
I know a LOT of memes for an old man, but that one...no. Doubt Trump does.
69 Trivia:
Chinese 69 ; Two Can Chew
When 69 is called at BINGO: "Two for Dinner"
Or "I prefer 68 -- you do me and I'll owe you one."
"I'm here all week. Try the veal and don't forget to tip the waiters."
THEOLDMAN
For the record, in the juvenile circles of Twitter that I run in, this is a thing. When I saw Trump doing it I laughed.
"Others have declared the gag over"
And that's why they're giving up on 69.

That will get tagged as a reference to Hitler's birthday. Because it's President Trump, of course. For everybody else, it would be kewl.
