定義: Originated from the song "Doot Doot (6 7)" by Skrilla, this is a code-mixing term used by Gen Z westernised Hong Kongers when they want to say 'I don't know' or refer to something 'so-so' as a rating. Sometimes, it may have no meaning at all, even when the person is juggling both hands up and down excitedly. Coincidently, six seven looks similar to the Cantonese expression '碌柒', which has the literal meaning of 'a stick of dick' and refers to an idiot.

E.g. A: What is the answer to this question? B: Six seven! (I don't f***ing know.)同義詞: 唔撚知, 係喇掛參考: https://www.instagram.com/p/DQbVj-KkvEX/?hl=en (使用手機版本)
