I mean if people can’t tell this is a joke, they need to take their brain vitamins. Thanks for my first lol of the day. Poor Jenny and the rest of her peeps in their TX hood
Expecting people 1) to get that something is a joke and 2) to be normal on social media is a big ask. But if it makes you feel better, I knew you were joking.
I still remember a handful of numbers, including my family's home number from the 1960s, back when you could call a local number using only five digits...actually DIAL it on the rotary phone leased from Ma Bell.
The song is about a girl named Jenny whose number had been written on a wall. The singer hopes to call her, but is thwarted by his own fear. Nevertheless, he entreats her not to change her number, because someday he'll be brave enough to call and will sweep her off her feet
Can confirm (it's one digit off from my work address zip code) but OP probably meant to joke about 75309 (which doesn't exist but if it did it would be in or near Dallas)
Haha real funny. The truth is if Donald Trump said to 86 some democrat, Joe Biden would have had the FBI breaking down his door. If he said it during his first presidency they would have had him impeached for the Third time. Democrats are the worst.
Okay, considering I live in a cave. I had to google that zip code.. Why was this song written threatening the people in dallas fort worth.. INQUIRING MINDS WOULD LIKE TO KNOW😳🤣
It's not a zip code it's a phone number left on a wall "For a good time" w Jenny
He becomes infatuated with her. It's all in the lyrics
It's not a threat
Lol
if jenny leaves you a nasty reminder of that good time, if your in mississippi, you can use those digits and it’ll ring the hospital (back in the day i called it 😅)
Don't make me sing it to you - you'll never get it out of your inquiring mind..... "Jenny, I got your number, I need to make you mine, Jenny don't change your number - 867530ni-yi-ne...."
Sure, the government erases an entire zip code from existence, wipes all record of it from the internet, and it's all a big joke since it was in Texas.
I have tried this and it flagged somehow and it locked my transaction and they had to come find a manager who I had to explain it to before he'd unlock the terminal again. Wouldn't recommend.
I guess people are now using this slang as something other than how it was originally meant. Old people like me and poor Comey wouldn't mean it that way. For us it meant to fire somebody or dump somebody - nothing violent.
I guess I'm old. I mean I knew it but when people don't know what you're talking about, it kills me a little. They, of course, turned it into something else. Now, "Deep 6" is different..
It’s bullshit. Imagine taking this case to court. The judge would through Pam Bondi Barbie out of his courtroom for charging frivolous charges. She is one dangerous witch. Man she needs to be put in her place.
Not many people outside the 80s Bay Area know this, but 867 was the prefix for Saratoga, CA. It was widely told that a little old lady starting getting so many phone calls due to the song that she had to change her number.
It is when the singer was thinking things at 3:34 or 3:35 am in the morning. I blame your being in the dark on digital clocks. The ones with hands made it make more sense.

I used The Goog.... 75303 is Dallas County, 75312 is Dallas. The codes in between don't seem to be assigned.
Normal...
Did an air-spew instead.
But, I'm not 'everyone'.
Jenny don't lose that number
I'm going to plant a mine...
Zipcode to 75309, is 75308- for an area of Dallas, TX. . . Not the first place I'd threaten with 86
I see what you did there...
There's a former FBI director that would really find this dad joke hilarious.
I've really given this too much thought
Not thanking you for the instant earworm however.
There is no zip code 75309.
Still worth it though!
He becomes infatuated with her. It's all in the lyrics
It's not a threat
Lol
Oops!!!
and watch them enter it into the system.
Barely made it out alive.
Hell, most of them won one of the t-shirts inspired by Jack Posobeics 2022 tweet aiming the same phrase towards Biden!
This entire administration is little more than a tabloid magazine turned into a reality TV show.
*Tommy Tutone
I got it
Jenny, don't change your number!
I never got it either.

They sent the fish back, it was a little off.
