Apropos of nothing, I was contemplating some Motörhead lyrics and Lemmy drops:
"Fourth day, five day marathon.We’re moving like a parallelogram."
I don't, off the top, recall anyone else dropping the word parallelogram into a song before or since. I mean, a song not intended to teach kids geometry. And I get what Lemmy means. Despite being only able to move like a regular dude myself.
( I did it in italics to make it, uh... move like a paralellogram.)
Whatchoo got? Pentagons/grams is low-hanging fruit and the reserve of small-minded metal dudes, but hexagons, dodecahedrons, geodesic Buckminster Fuller shit - I speak of this domain.

Nonagon isn't much better but is closer to what you are looking for.
Rectangles have four sides.
Rhombi have four sides.
Trapeziods have four sides.
Parallelograms have four sides.
What is this, amateur hour? No "Of equal length." disclaimer? smfh.

...forgetting that the Seal Of Solomon is a hexagram as well, used by Jews and Christians, for example, outside of occult context. I'm not sure what the video maker's excuse is.
I think The Highlighters Band should have went with "Funky Hexadecagon".
