Eighty six, seventy five, three, zero, nine.

it was a test; if you don't know the number you are unworthy.

When this song came out in Evansville, IN there was an actual local phone with that number. A friend of mine would prank call it with the radio blaring every time it came on. Poor people. Lol. Land line pre-caller id
AlwaysInTheshadows
I don't ask for numbers. I give them mine. Makes things like this way less awkward plus you really shouldn't assume someone will give it personal info.

I knew a Jenny with the number 267-5309. Maybe it's not fake? It's probably fake
Sunflier
For those of us who aren't familiar, whats the number? Is it the rejection hotline?

Maybe she didn't like your use of "meet" instead of "met" Women like guys who know how to use their "MEET".

Had a girl catch me off guard by taking my phone and putting her number in it and texting herself. I had no idea what to do! I mean she has a bf but she was massively flirting.I had to let it go, honestly nothing I could do. She was perfect other than that. Still the best and worst day of my adult life. 7 years single and thhats the first time I've gotten any attention from the opposite sex. I need a drink, holidays suck.

I GOT IT!
greggbert
Are you amish? What's your number?
bumblebeerumble
That would honestly devastate me…. I mean that’s a solid sense of humour & quick thinking
RandomKindStranger
Don't let it discourage you! You're bound to find someone - just keep looking! :)
subeom4
This was me 10 years ago. High-five to that lady

I had a job for ten years where my desk number was one number off of this one (X67-5309). The number of middle schoolers and drunk people who would call and leave messages asking if I was “Jenny” was in the hundreds by the time I left. Monday mornings I could usually count on 1-4 of them. I’d put them on speaker and the whole office would laugh at the best ones.
corgimas
There is a plumbing company in Rhode island with that#!!!

NebulousToucan
For a good time, call!
TheWayThatIsKownIsNotTheWay
this actually would want to date her even more. 🤣. Sorry for the missed opportunity OP.
Sanotassard
i know right? and i only noticed the next day when i tried to call, it didn't work and i actually looked at the number
Bryllyg
I only gave wrong numbers when I felt like the guy was being really pushy or made me feel unsafe. Maybe something to reflect upon in case it applies... and it may not - she might just have some personal stuff going on and wanted to leave it as a good memory.
muffintop666
i feel like its better for a guy to give a girl HIS number, so that the chick isnt feeling forced to give up her number if shes feeling unsafe.. idk, i know id appreciate that much more instead of someone i dont really know asking for my numb
wtfylat
This is the way
idiotsonfire
What does this mean? Never seen that number before in my life.

It's Jenny's constant, a mathematical number used for maths.

Can someone explain this to me please

Thank you.

i guess it is similar to getting 089 - 32 16 8 in Germany? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaONT_O0gjI
Lowland
man thats a long time ago I heard that song, noice
CelestialSea
All the German girls I ask out must live together, the number they give me is always 999-9999 and they're adamant about it, like they REALLY want me to remember it.
IThoughtTheElectricMayhemMightBeFreeButIWasWrong
Would you prefer 634-5789?
ThisGuyPostingThings
Gonna have the Blues Brothers 2000/Jonny Lang version stuck in my head for a bit tonight, thank you.
iGotFOLDERS
2000 was definitely different than the original, but if you cut out all the crap and focus on the music and performances, it is great. I don’t even mind the kid.
ThisGuyPostingThings
Oh yeah, I loved the soundtrack. Not as great as the first film, but some great ones, John Goodman was a nice addition (he's not John Belushi, but he works).
justherefortheconfession
Back in the '80s while stationed in South Korea, I wandered into a small on-post bar and found Tommy Tutone playing. My friend and I requested "Jenny" over and over for the next 2 hours because it was the only song of theirs (it's a band, not a guy--who knew?) we knew. They were so pissed by the end of his show. That made it even more hilarious.

Was it at that weird Woodstock bar?
NinjaCongo
Haha! Used to get absolutely fucked in the Woodstock bar back in -94! I'd request CCR's I Put a Spell on You, climb up on a table, mime the lyrics and then perform kneeling air guitar solos. It became a regular thing. Some people physically fought me to stop it, but on I went.
madeejit
Ye can clap all you want, I'm going to keep going!
c3l3x
Did you call it? I have wondered if those numbers work
Blacktusk
Most of them were just regular folks who pretty quickly got annoyed and the phone companies were like, "We're just not going to give this one out anymore," after the original listings asked for it to be discontinued. IIRC a radio station somewhere picked it up for their area code.
wanjeonhanwalwal
The two Oregon area codes yield "not in service" messages
justherefortheconfession
504-867-5309 is a anit-harassment hotline in New Orleans. I hope other area codes do the same
c3l3x
That's a great idea. Easy to remember and useful for society!
Merdock
That would be amazing. Checked my area code, and it led me to a permanently closed weed shop.
brokenturtle
Maybe it's her real number
TotallyNotVillain
brokenturtle
2003, the phones are getting smaller and texting is charged by the message
RocMage
Don't lose that number
SkamanSam
I would hope i would have a good enough time with her to keep it on the wall somewhere.

Ricky?
mnreyno
Jenny
bondematt
You don't want to call nobody else
KarmannGeezer
Send it in a letter, to yourself
remaker
You might use it if you feel better.
gemmastylist
When you get home.
Turkleturts
I have questions... 1) Do people even still 'pick up' in person? I thought that died off years ago. 2) Is this a general "no thanks" number, or something else? 3) Why would anyone do this rather than just saying "look, no thanks"?
Blacktusk
1: Yes. 2: It's a number that features heavily in a song. https://youtu.be/6WTdTwcmxyo 3: Because men are women's primary natural predator and it can be safer (and certainly easier) to blow him off by letting him think he succeeded instead of risking some sort of escalation.
wildsageHMC
Yep. I think I’ve been threatened after rejecting someone (sometimes politely, sometimes by just not responding) more than a few dozen times. Every time is terrifying. You learn how to use different tactics to get yourself out of potentially bad situations. And every single person who reacted this way was a man.
Turkleturts
Won't lie, America is a weird place. Just when you think it's a civilised country, they pop out with more crazy shit like "women can't say no to a man without being murdered".
AttackBacon
Worse in a lot of other parts of the world.
Muffyns
Its notbexclusive to the states people are crazy
Theory89
It's not but it's much more of a problem there. 95% of American women have had "unwanted sexual contact", vs 40% in the UK. Incidentally the number is 35% for men here, roughly the same in the US.
