It's not been the first time that i was confronted with the answer of '42'. What did those people want to tell me? When would you use '42' as an appropriate answer ... to Life, the Universe, and Everything ...

It was in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Yes, you manipulate the question to get the answer you want.\n\nWhy 5 or 13 days? What about 1 day, or 7 days?\nWhy 55 weeks? Why not 1 or 52?\nWhy 68 years?\nEtc.

The answer is 42, the "answer to life, the universe and everything".  This is the question revealed in Douglas Adams' famous Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series of novels.\n\nThe answer, as the story goes, was given by the computer "Deep Thought"; when the answer was given (hundreds of generations later) it was determined they needed to know the "real question".  It was inferred that the earth and everything in it was the special 'computer' that was built to determine the nature of that question.

First, I have to question your numbers. Don't think so.\n\nBut to answer the question, EVERYONE.\n\nThank you very much, while you're up!

42 (or forty two if you want two words instead of two numbers).

The meaning of forty-two was lost when the Vogon constructor fleet destroyed the earth just seconds before it was to complete it's 10,000,000 year program to calculate what the meaning of 42 (the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything).  It has been theorized, however, that the program had been corrupted very early in it's process by the introduction of the Golgafrinchen Ark B crashing onto the planet.

It looks like someone reported it as "not a question" - the way it was phrased makes it hard to tell what you're asking. Try asking it with a more complete sentence in the heading, and maybe it'll last longer.\n\nGood luck!

Point missed or question not stated correctly in the first place?  Would a straight person have more correctly asked the question?  Would a christian?\n\nActually I take that back, a christian would never have asked the question.  They would have merely attributed the unknown answer to "He works in mysterious ways..." and would have been totally content with leaving it at that.

Okay, I'm going to answer without using "42". The meaning of Life as I know it is to be the best person you can be, learn as much stuff as you can and love as best you can. If you want to include religion, I would say to honor God and follow the truth.

4 is the answer. Here's how:\n4 appears after a break of two numbers, so the number that follows 40 must be 4

42 for the woodchuck thing but on the meaning of life, there is no certain meaning of life. it can be anyhting that you choose it to be, whether it is someone you life and your life was designed to be spent with this person. or maybe a certain talent you are good at and your life is purposed to perfect this skill. No one apart from you chooses your meaning of existence. As you get older you will get closer and closer to discovering why you were put on this Earth.

Seems like a pretty interesting riddle. I am so sorry that it didn't get the response it deserved. I think you should have placed it in the "Jokes and Riddles" sub-category under the category "Entertainment & Music". It would have garnered an immense response there.\n\nAnyways, let me try here-\n4 is golden,eh? I think here 4 somehow refers to "silence"\nNow, 5 is silence. Ummm.... what should be 5? I give up.\n\nGood Riddle. Try posting it in the "Jokes & Riddles" category.

It "isn't" as definitive as normal people-speak "is."\n\nI "am" 31 years old.  I don't "appear" or "seem" 31 years old (I still get carded), I have existed on this planet as a complete unattatched organism for 31 years.
