I've been on here for years, and I have yet to decipher why this number is used. It seems to be used when people want to make replies somewhat akin to "Derp".

I know I'm going to get a panoply of non-serious replies, probably some with 87 in them, but in for the one or two serious replies.

Multiply 87 times itself.

Add up all the digits of that number.

Now multiply that number by 87.

Add up all the digits again.

Weird, huh?

Because it's the answer to life, the universe, and everything.

The amount of Trump threads on page one at any given moment.

FUARock
FoDog
etc...

Its like 86 but 1 better.

"OMG! It spins!!!"

read that

It is 19 better than a 69

It's not 88

neo-nazi's use 88 as their code for HH (Heil Hitler), since H is the 8th letter in alphabet.
88 is banned here, so people find it edgy to use 87.



It's actually kind of disgusting.



Why not use some other cool codes like P-A (Pro-Abortion) 16-1, to double down on the stupidity?



 
If the site banned sucking dick, there would be some who would bitch about that, and try to get some on the sly.


 

If markm really started it. I actually don't remember that.  I doubt that's why it stuck.  Also, where did he come up with it?

I'm feeling generous today.

Not sure if serious...

Uh...., this.  

Transcendence beyond '86' by 1.

I think it has something to do with the Bureau of Land Management.

Or maybe the Black Lives Matter movement.  I'm not sure which.  I frequently get them confused.  Pretty sure they are both bad though.

So an 87 response could be followed up by an FU? Only in GD.

I know where that is!  

That's 42 not 87!

 
"These things happen"

When will we see a "what's pron mean...."

Four score and 7 years

Dude..... that sent a shiver up my spine and the room started spinning. Don't joke like that!
I need my wife to comfort me and hold me and blow me now (will be #87 for the year so far).

It has no significance.  It's just a meaningless GD shibboleth.

Jane. Please stop.  It is a meaningful number, and you know it. Now I have to go put the 86th coat of wax on my vehicle.

For an answer you apparantly pulled out of your ass, you sure put a lot of detail into it

Another significance of 87. Do a search on Happy Land. Ban gasoline.

89

Yep

You are retarded.

I think a lot of people were just coming up with that number as "the first random number that popped into their head," and it became an ARFCOM meme.

I don't think it was just MarkM that started it.

The true answer will be in post# 87.

Thats 87 pounds of stupid in a 10 pound bag.

It had nothing to do with "88'ers" when it started nor does it today.

Because ---- Magnets

I think you missed the point of the whole thing.

Heil Gitler

no wai 69 tha best

I miss Mhoffman.

It's all ball bearings nowadays. Now you prepare that Fetzer valve with some 3-in-1 oil and some gauze pads.

So I missed the change over???? WTF
