When, after seven and a half million years of calculation, the answer finally turns out to be 42, Deep Thought's creators sheepishly realize that they don't know the question. Deep Thought itself does not know the ultimate question to Life, the Universe and Everything, but offers to design an even more powerful computer (the Earth, note the Earth in fiction) to calculate it. After ten million years of calculation, the Earth is destroyed by Vogons five minutes before the computation is complete. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Answer_to_Life,_the_Universe,_and_Everything daydream_believer 04-17-05, 08:48 AM 42 of course Deep Thought Deep Thought is a computer that was created to come up with the ultimate answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything.

In any case, I'll choose 428, and the rest of you can bugger off. FK Wings 05-30-05, 09:00 PM Why not have a favorite number? 27 (everything 3's without actually mentioning a 3) Jinoda 05-30-05, 10:25 PM I think we are all serious in our posts, FieryKitten. We here at sciforums do not kid about our favorite numbers. I must add, 42 has found a new place in my heart in these last few weeks. FieryKitten 05-30-05, 10:30 PM I had no idea that they were so important here. I will back off of your numeric idolatry. FK Jinoda 05-30-05, 10:34 PM :D You know I was joking, of course? FieryKitten 05-30-05, 10:46 PM One should hope so. FK Acid Cowboy 05-30-05, 11:17 PM I'm rather partial to the number 5, simply because of the Law of Fives (http://www.answers.com/topic/the-law-of-fives). Hail Eris! Rick 05-31-05, 01:12 AM 69 off course. ;) Hapsburg 05-31-05, 01:17 AM ah...69 is for people who cannot look each other in the face while F***ing. Damn ingrates. curioucity 06-06-05, 11:54 PM My fave numbe4r? 4 Jeremirroer 06-07-05, 12:09 AM 2 is a great number. The best by far. CrystalLuna 06-14-05, 02:41 PM 3 is my favorite number. I noticed in elementary school that I was always #3. It just kinda stuck with me. I still often find myself in situation where I am the third. Who knows?? Maybe 3 likes ME and I have no choice but to like 3. Well, this is the cesspool. :) Cottontop3000 06-14-05, 03:11 PM 1, because it's so lonely. It needs a friend too. :rolleyes: NO1 06-14-05, 03:57 PM 1214, its my birthdate and it makes me feel like in 20 minutes.... I could do whatever I want wherever I want Arquibus 06-14-05, 10:57 PM Mine is 37. It has been for years...can't remember why. Does anyone know anything important about 37? The Charmer 06-16-05, 04:39 AM 69 IS dinner for two... ...but for some reason, mine would be 39. Never thought about it until now... john smith 06-16-05, 04:43 AM ah...69 is for people who cannot look each other in the face while F***ing. Damn ingrates. Sounds like your not getting enough...in any way.... :D john smith 06-16-05, 04:44 AM 1, because it's so lonely.

I have no idea why. And I would say 69, becuase it is the only number that makes people laugh like a bunch of kids when it comes up...ah, a simply glorious number. wallaby 07-24-05, 02:05 AM 13...it's an odd little number whose Prime consern is making people feel unlucky. Roman 07-24-05, 08:03 AM While viewing Acid Cowboys link, I found this (http://www.answers.com/main/ntquery;jsessionid=pzgb5dzy7ap2?tname=the-23-enigma&curtab=2222_1&hl=law&hl=fives&sbid=lc03a). Interesting, but actually an artifact of a base ten counting system. The smaller a number is, the more frequently it appears in semirandom events. For instance, if we were looking at the number of Doctors with the name last name Smith in the USA, the number would be most likely have small digits, rather (1,2,3,4) than big ones (6,7,8,9). 1, 2 and 3 are the most common appearing digits. I wish I could remember what this phenomena was called so I could provide a link. Quite interesting, though. cosmictraveler 07-26-05, 08:48 AM I also like 0 certified psycho 07-30-05, 01:57 PM '5' seems to be plain and simple.
