As the Committee of Conundrums gathered to ponder the mysteries of the universe, they found themselves stuck on one particular enigma: why is the answer always 42?
Professor Pixel explained that it's a fundamental aspect of the universe's design, a cosmic constant that underlies all of existence.
But Dr. Bletch, the committee's resident skeptic, countered that 42 might just be a convenient number to explain things we don't fully understand.
As the debate raged on, the committee members decided to take a break and grab some snacks from the break room. On the break room fridge, they found a note that read: "42 slices of pie remaining."
It was then that they realized the answer to life's greatest mystery might be hiding in plain sight.
