According to the great philosopher, Deep Thought, the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything is indeed 42.
But, have you ever stopped to consider the real meaning behind this number?
Is it the number of legs on a typical dog? (No.)
Is it the number of sides on a typical die? (No.)
No, it's actually the number of beers you can fit in a standard keg, when filled to capacity, with the lid off, and you're using a funnel, and the keg is slightly deflated due to a recent party gone awry.
But, seriously, folks, the real answer is actually 42. Because, let's face it, the universe is just a bunch of random stuff happening, and sometimes that stuff is a number, and that number is 42.
So, what's the meaning of life, then?
Who cares? You're probably going to die in a few billion years, anyway.
So, enjoy the ride, and remember: the answer is 42, duh.
