42

42!

Because Deep Thought calculated it as being the answer to the Great Question about Life, the Universe and Everything.

A number without context is kinda useless. That's the joke.

Because 69, 8008, and 1134 were already taken.

42 is actually death, isn't it?

The correct ask is.... Why not?

Jatan's away. POST NUMBERED THREADS!

Are you sure it is not 47?

Pretty sure the answer to everything was '' Gift Lvl99gamer Skyrim''

Dunno where you got this weird 42 business from

6 is the number of the devil, 7 is the number of god.

6*7=42

42 is the answer. What you're really looking for is the question, and why does it always equal 42?

4/20 is Stoner's Day, and since stoners are the most enlightened ones, Snoop Dogg made 42 the meaning of everything to give stoners some credit for their huge knowledge about our universe.

22/7=42
Thats what you are looking for

Actually -
42 is an old computer term, back when the asterisk ( * ) went by, well, 42. DOS computers would use 42, or asterisk, as a meaning for freeform or random. Therefore, the answer to everything is... uh... anything.

What is six times nine?

1. There are 42 dots on a pair of dice.
2. When you see a rainbow, the angle between the ground and a line to the top of the rainbow is always 42 degrees.
3. Two standard packs of cards have 42 eyes (one each for the jacks of spades and hearts, and the king of diamonds; two for the other court cards).
4. Forty-two men served as US presidents before Barack Obama. He is called the 44th president as Grover Cleveland served two non-consecutive terms, so was both 22nd and 24th president.

Just some crap I picked up at random on the internet.

because that is the number of roads a man must walk down.

42 is the answer to everything because it is an answer. But it doesn't state it is the right answer everytime. Try answering every question with 42. quite funny. But some People might find it weird. just a warning

Because potato!

7 dwarfs + 7 wonders + 7 kings of rome + 9/11 disaster

+1 for my comment

See? easy illuminati peasy.

1337/π * 10/l0l = 42.13666513 ≈ 42

Because 4 and 2 are relatives and 4 is the square of 2 so if you put them next to each other you get either 24 or 42 but since 24 is already overused ( 24 hours in a day, 12*2=24 and we all know how twelves itself is overused yadda yadda) 42 is the alternative hipster choice!111 Did that make any sense? >>

Because i said so?
