That number numerically is 888-346-4377
I couldn’t find any listings for the 888 number, but 1-800-346-4377 is the number is you want to order phone books from AT&T. The exact opposite in terms of DINGERS excitement.

HOLY SHIT
I found the listing for 888-346-4377.
It’s the fax line for Global Directories in Jamaica. What does Global Directories do? Why, they publish phone books, of course.

I don't think so.
The number doesn’t spell anything phonebook-related: http://www.phonespell.org/combo.cgi?n=346-4377

It kind of does in a roundabout way.
“Fingers,” as in “Let your fingers do the walking.”
But yes, most likely a coincidence.

The insant I saw the title wasn't Comic Sans.
That wasn’t intentionally referencing the meme. The one that I know nothing about.

So, is it "Bat your own balls"?
Or “Balls, you old bat!”?

I was trying to nip this joke in the bud :(
Guess I should’ve made it more obvious

Erik Spiekermann: Most people who use Helvetica, use it because it’s ubiquitous. It’s like going to McDonald’s instead of thinking about food. Because it’s there, it’s on every street corner, so let’s eat crap because it’s on the corner.

Erik Spiekermann: [sighs] Why is… bad taste ubiquitous?
Actually Helvetica/Arial on highway signs is the work of the devil
Really gross- that’s not how a route number should look ever, but props for the use of an old Arizona shield spec
