๐Ÿ™„ I want you to tell me with a straight face that you honestly believe someone could say something like "six nines..." whilst simultaneously quirking their eyebrow and striking a dual fingerguns pose without an implied double meaning...

A screenshot of Luke from the Linus Tech Tips "What do we do now?" video as he strikes a dual fingerguns pose as he quirks his eyebrow and wears a grimace-like smile

For Pete's sake, the editor even inserted a zoom cut and delayed the next shot transition for comedic effect!

Worth noting that the "69... Nice" joke is not just a universal meme, but also specially part of LTT in-jokes. So it's very much in character for Linus or others at LMG to say something like that, but I am honestly disappointed that it came from Luke.
