The answer to life! (A reference to Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adam’s)
It’s the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything.
But what is the question? We need a bigger computer!
It was "what is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything?"...it was right there in the other guys reply
Specifically it was the answer to life, the universe, and everything, but you'll notice that "life, the universe, and everything" is not a question. So, we know the answer, but not the question. It is also further explained that the question and the answer cannot exist within the same universe
Yeah my bad, my pop culture is a bit rusty. The ultimate question, I.e. the question of life, the universe and everything, is "What do you get when you multiply six by nine?"
54?
No the answer was 42...weren't you listening!?
