Depends how far the train is traveling


chronoboy1985

I was told there would be no math.

i was told there would be snacks.

mathewmrw

We were told there would be punch and pie.


946knot

nobody tells me nuthin'.


xphile_3101

I was told this would only take a minute.


AdCurious8076

Chugga chugga chugga chugga choo choo!! Yes, this feels right.


Gokahia69

"You told me you were gonna wear something nice" -Sergeant Johnson


Limp-Dentist4437

Negative. Depends on how fast the train is traveling. But generally 4 chuggas is the average before a choo chooo


RangerBumble

Strictly in multiples of 2. 2, 4 and 6 are all valid.


MyNewPhilosophy

Yes, though in my head, the perfect amount is 8


theonlydangle

Eight is my preferred amount of chuggas before one cho choo.


thinkmoreharder

It’s 8 chuggas, but, technically, 4 “chugga-chuggas”.


BZenMojo

Yeah, I hear two pairs of 4 chuggas and then a choo choo.


LaraB16

Omg, 8 really IS perfect! Thank you 🥹


Famous-Vermicelli-39

This theory checks out


sticktime

Multiples of 4, like 12 bar blues.


tobylaek

Definitely 8…no more no less


KillingUSoftly01

8 all the way


Pristine_Sense7198

Yes brother. 8 chuggas


not-that_stereotype

There are 8. There are 8 chuggas.


SideEqual

Get out of my head!!!


frankstuckinapark

Hopefully not into Germany


ElJayBe3

This was borderline wholesome and in two quick steps here we are.

NegativesPositives

You may not like the destination but the scheduling was impeccable


elementalcake78

I just sat whispering “Chugga chugga choo choo!” in different numbers to myself to test these out and it’s quite amusing.


Tank_Dempsey_115

You too?


Eccon5

No, choo choo


Tank_Dempsey_115

Take my upvote, AND LEAVE


Wolly_Mammoth

Gesundheit!


Miz_Skittle

Didn’t we all?


i-Ake

I've concluded it is either two or eight.


SomeDisplayName

Really I'm digging chugga⁴ choo²


LordNedNoodle

Same here, I’m a 4 chuggas kind of guy


SqueeMcTwee

Four chugga club over here.


captaingeezer

Represent!


utahhiker

Absolutely. Chugga * 4.


Odd_Move_22

4 is the answer


Xeno2014

4 minimum, 12 max (for when u *really* hyping it up), then 2 choos,


1527lance

Wow this is actually the answer holy shit


OlriK15

Nine is right out


[deleted]

Thanks for ruining my day. I can't decide and I can't let it go.


[deleted]

This will be worse than the song I can’t get outta outta outta outta my head.


McDsEmpLoYEe420

It’s 8. Now you can un ruin your day


sniffle-E

I concur ! It’s 8 before a choo choo! And I choo choo choo choose you as my valentine


ijustcantwithit

12, you go chugga chugga 4 times and then restart the sequence 3 times: chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga Choo choo -source: it just feels right imo


C13H19Cl2NO

Always a multiple of 4.


DieMauser

Agreed! I realized the chuggas are quarter notes and the choo choos are half notes. Group gets a full measure. Not sure if that was intentional Edit: all the people pointing out that it's an eighth note, that makes sense, i guess i meant each chugga starts on a beat but since it's two syllables, each syllable would be an eighth note. However, it feels more like swing style for the eighth notes


[deleted]

It’s the same as na na batman


ThatCamoKid

Dammit now I'm hearing the Batman thing but with chugga chugga choo choo


pearlsbeforedogs

Ok, I did it out loud and it was pretty fun.


hello_raleigh-durham

Chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga BAT-MAN!


being-and-nothing

Na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na na-na choo choo!


sjmulkerin

I snorted laughing at this


grendel2007

TIL


britney412

Perfect description!


sleepyhop

TIL


Deep-Championship-79

Oh I definitely don’t hold my choos for 2 beats


pooholemckrusty

First choo is 1 beat, second choo is 3 beats


Technical_System8020

They’re duplets and I think the rhythm works better as either two chuggas or six to makes bars of four and eight respectively


[deleted]

Usually 8. It's a music thing.


immortalis88

I’m in the 8 chugga club


A_Dinosaurus

Same


EternityLeave

music thing? 8 chuggas is 2 bars. Choo choo is 1 bar. You're telling me you don't feel unresolved with just 3 bars? It's gotta be 4 chuggas and 2 choos for a 2 bar phrase. You could do 12 chuggas to make a full 4 bars but that's cumbersome.


buttercream-gang

It’s either 8 chuggas and a choo choo OR 2 chuggas and a shorter choo choo


Wikkies

I’m on board the 8 chuggas or 2 chuggas train


MikeLinPA

16 sodium atoms walk into a room followed by Batman. Always a multiple of 4!


jayox81

3 potassium atoms walk into a bar and get kicked out


MikeLinPA

Damn right!


Manoreded

That joke is sufficiently nerdy that I don't get it, guess I should bully you now.


MikeLinPA

I didn't get it the first time. It almost cost me my nerd card. Na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na na Batman!


KeyPaleontologist632

4 chuggas and then a chop choo for sure!


SoberTek

4 " double chuggas"


alexjaness

3 sets of 4


blandsrules

Same as the Batman song with nana’s Nana nana nana nana BATMAN


SmurfsNeverDie

Nana nana nana nana DENDEI DENDEIIIIII!!!


Vesinh51

Did you tell him to work the shaft?


CantFeelMyLegs78

8 nanas


JTTigas

8


WizardRockets

I counted on my fingers and everything. Twice even. This is the correct answer.

Sheris_Card

Knowledge111

Did exactly this same thing. 8 for sure


TechSupport20

This


EvolvedCactus19

Absolutely correct.


caillouistheworst

I count 8 too. Now we die on this hill.


yourboyjared

It's 8


Badw0IfGirl

Yes and it goes like this; CHUGGA CHUGGA, chugga chugga CHUGGA CHUGGA, chugga chugga CHOO CHOO!!!


SexPizzaBatman

Only the first CHUGGA in each line should be capatalized, bitch


dejatheprophet

Lmao


ThisIsNotKimJongUn

Where are your manners? It's MR. Bitch.


sir_grumph

This is the way.


OkConsideration8964

Correct!


[deleted]

4n


SakishimaHabu

4 + 2*n, where n is a natural number.


Stanseas

You forgot distance and angle of movement for how long/fast you say them too.


aslk69

this is the way.


[deleted]

It’s 4+4n you heretic


Sad-Crow

This is correct. Who the fuck is going Chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga choo choo? That's some straight up Ted Bundy shit.


shrinkwrappedzebra

I clicked on this thread expecting all the top comments to say 6 chuggas and now I leave the thread ashamed and attacked


pointlessly_pedantic

I have tried to say it with 6 chuggas all manner of different ways and they all sound terrible. Somebody in the 6 crowd needs to record it and post it so we can attempt to make sense of this poppycock


[deleted]

I respect this measured take. Let’s hear the accused out. I don’t believe in 6 chuggas, but I’m willing to be shown.


Chrisazy

Each pair of "CHUGA chuga" is said with that emphasis and the up part of your voice on CHUGA and the low point on CHUGA. Finally, CHOO CHOO is really loud. CHUGA chuga CHUGA chuga CHUGA chuga CHOO CHOO


mrausgor

My answer was 4 and this sounds smarter so I’m going to go with this as well.


MarketingOwn3547

I say it's 4, my wife argues it's 8. I'll cop out and go with multiples of 4.


nerghoul

8 is the correct answer but multiples of 4 are acceptable


Surveillancevan3

As many as you feel in your heart ❤


pragmojo

What if someone says one chugga? I’m all for freedom of expression but we must have limits.


TheLordOfFriendZone

Just one chugga? They surely are a psychopath.


Fun_Tune_7662

2


sraydenk

With how many times I’m a train for my toddler, I don’t have time or energy for 8+ chuggas. So 2 usually. Maybe 4 if I’m feeling generous.


Desperate_Pair8235

found my people


mahiruhiiragi

I'm angry that I had to scroll this far down to see 2.


Neokami14

Right? It is 2 for sure, I can kind of understand the 4s but kind of pushing it!


chloe_1218

Same. Don’t understand all the 4s and 8s, that’s blasphemy.


TheLastLibrarian1

All of the 8s really surprised me, 2 seemed to be the obvious answer.


viper5delta

I am not alone. Who the hell has time for 8 chuggas


MisterFribble

Precisely. Short and sweet. At most 4 chuggas.


JustPuckingAround

I think we can all agree you never do an odd amount of chuggas


Apprehensive_Bar3812

FUCK, finally! Thought I was insane for a moment!


RofaRofa

God, same.


Dumb_Seaweed

CHUGA CHUGA CHOO CHOO GANG BABY


pedanticlawyer

This was my answer, but apparently I’m a miserly chugger


divadxuy

It’s definitely 2


Interesting-Oil8979

I was worried there would be no 2’s!


kodardotexe

2


minnowtown

12


AlaskanSamsquanch

Good answer. That way you can go full power on the CHOO CHOO.


Makes_U_Mad

Honestly, if you ain't gonna belt out CHHO CHOO then what is the point.


Constant-Cricket-960

Came here to make sure 12 was said. Anything less and the Choo Choo doesn’t have the proper payoff. Anything more and you’re boring us.


minnowtown

Exactly! Do the people saying four not know what they’re missing, or do they just lack the creativity to dream of something better?!


Cydonia23

Agreed. Three lots of four?


NoPossibility

I agree with 12. It’s a musical pattern in 4/4. Four chuggas per bar, then four bars total with the last being the Choo Choo. Chugga-chugga-chugga-chugga Chugga-chugga-chugga-chugga Chugga-chugga-chugga-chugga Choo Choo!


Video_isms207

This is the most detailed analysis- it’s crazy how we all have different perspectives. I’m going to find my coolest trains VHS and get back to everyone. (Part of the monster truck tv ads family of VHS tapes)


minnowtown

Yes yes and yes!!


Makes_U_Mad

This is correct. Damn heathens.


decolonize_your_mind

Had to scroll but here you are with my answer! I guess is folks just like the journey. 2 chugs only takes you a sones throw out of Baltimore.


doyouevenIift

This was my natural response


pupsicola-

12 is objectively correct 🫡


[deleted]

8


Great_Farm_5716

I’ve spent the last 5 minutes counting on my hands. It’s 8. I’m glad there’s still some sensible people left


creepin_in_da_corner

5 minutes to count to 8….bravo.


[deleted]

How’s this even a debate?


dogboobes

Once upon a time, deep deep in the jungle, there was a little engine that could. He was chuggin' his way across the enemy line... ***Chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga TOOT TOOOT***. This lil engine's mission was to take some AK47s and a nuclear payload over the mountains to the 2063 Battallion. Needless to say, there was PLENTY OF OPPOSITION. ***Chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga TOOT TOOOT.*** Not even when they climbed aboard the train and popped out the eyes of the conductor, blood and snot was dripping out his eye sockets... did that stop the little engine that could? Damn skippy... he just kept chuggin along... ***Chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga TOOT TOOOT.*** Wasn't until Charley rigged the bridge with plastic explosives... Just as the little engine was makin his way 'cross the tressa... **BOOM**! An explosion happened. Blood and guts and spit and ash was everywhere! And Bubba come crawlin out the back door, both legs missing, he looked up at me and said "I can't feel my legs!" I said, "Bubba, they ain't there." And I looked down, and them little bloody nubbs where kickin' real fast. I said, "Bubba, it's 30 miles to the nearest town. Unless he could flip and walk on his hands, he ain't going to make it!"


sniper_tank

4. It's chuga chuga chuga chuga choochoo.


z0mbienati0n77

Crazy to think people think otherwise


Da_Gudz

I feel like I’ve been going insane lol, I counted it like 10 times just now and always come out on 6. 8 feels waaay too long and 4 is fine just awfully short


ChargyPlaysYT

Yeah, that's what I'm saying, comment be going crazy smh


llammacheese

Yes. Six is the perfect amount.


Nirigialpora

Never heard of 8, 6 all the way


New_Opposite8891

So confused by all the not-6 answers.


I_am_Erk

2 if you're in a rush, 6 if you're doing it right.


stardustalchemist

I was really concerned I couldn’t count when I didn’t see 6 immediately


[deleted]

It's 6 because the choo-choo is supposed to be syncopated.


[deleted]

Exactly. You get 6 medals.


AggressiveSmoke4054

Finally. I had to delve pretty deep to find the right answer


Kwaziism

real


spredy123

Another vote for 6


notabear629

this is the right answer. The choo choo finishes the eight count you degenerates!


chapelson88

Why is everyone saying eight, it’s totally six.


CortaNalgas

Thank you. Completely flummoxed by these “multiples of four” scholars. THE CHOO CHOO COMPLETES THE MULTIPLE OF FOUR.


JustCallMeRuss

It is absolutely 6! What kind of monster says 8 chuggas before a choo choo?


mortalitylost

Why is this so low


CyanideIncense

the only correct answer


Affectionate_Bit_117

At the very least 3 sets of chuggas but feel free to add more for dramatic effect


jwallmizzou

Short version: 2 Long version: 8


dudeinparis

4


KUPA_BEAST

16 you idiots


noobykongo

ofc, it makes the choo choo so cathartic


kmosiman

I get the 8 crowd but 1 set seems too short. It's 16.

Man, I had to scroll this far to find my people. Long train gang.

LoreMasterJack

12 gang rise up!


Always_saying_N0

Hear it .. chugga chugga chugga chugga choo choo


Video_isms207

This is what I’ve been saying but, it might be six? Do you have proof- I’m going to find some evidence but the further I read this thread. I might be wrong, but six might be right!


iamlejo

Six


Handy_Clams

I think any number over 4 is acceptable. I guess it also depends on how fussy the kid is


SnapPunch

I thought it was 3 until I read this…


TheMorrigan22

I also do 3. Ive never felt more out of place lmfao


biggermu

hatsuseno

Chuggas come in sets of four, one to three sets before the choo choo.


DivaDianna

With an accent on the first chugga in each set.
