Popular music often contains slang references of the time, such as "L7", a slang expression for a "square"; someone who's conventional and old-fashioned.

L7 referred to the square formed by holding the left hand with the pointer finger extended straight up and the thumb to the right and the right hand with the pointer finger straight down and the thumb to the left.

One could silently call another a "square" using only the gesture. L7 was in contrast to someone who was "hip".

'Woolly Bully' by Sam The Sham and The Pharoahs

Hatty told Matty, "Let's don't take no chance
Let's not be L-seven, come and learn to dance"
Wooly Bully, Wooly Bully

Also the name of a chick band from the early 90s.

(Ooops I just gave myself away with “chick”)

KEK - a translation of LOL (Laugh Out Loud) used by online gamers that expanded into a full meme used by 4Chan members to troll presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and the Fake News Media in the 2016 election. They set out to expose fake news with an intentionally ludicrous symbol. Hillary and the Propaganda Media fell for it, claiming that "white nationalists" used the symbol of 'Pepe the Frog' to disguise their racist actions.

Epic trolling.
