No- the meaning of life is to ask this question over and over again on Yahoo! Answers:

The Answer to life, the universe and everything is 42....they haven't figured out the question yet. That's from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, by Douglas Adams.
The Meaning of Life is a Monty Python movie.
Both of these things are English, yet totally unrelated-originally....I believe there are a couple of guys from the Monty Python team in the Hitchhiker's Guide movie.
Also try the book and series Red Dwarf... These English folk seem to have that kind of thing down.
Seven is COMPLETELY off base...lol Well, not really, things are said to go in 7's and 3's, also 5's oddly enough, but they do not constitute the actual meaning of life.

It's not really 42.
Douglas Adams didn't know the real answer, so he made up a funny answer, but like all jokes it wears a little thin after the 42nd hearing.
The meaning of life is a secret known only to a very few special people, and mice. The mice can't tell you cos they can't talk, and the special people are not allowed to tell anyone else or something dreadful will happen. like the end of the world or something, but they can't tell you that either.
I am not one of these special people, so I can't tell you the answer either.
So you see it's a kind of catch 42 situation.

In 'The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy', scientists build a huge supercomputer to tell them the meaning of life. The catch is it will take millions of years to figure it out. When the supercomputer is finally finished it tells them that the answer to the meaning of life is '42'. No one understands what 42 means. The supercomputer then explains that the answer is 42, but no one knows the question.

Check out the film City Slickers, when Curley the trail boss sort of answers this tricky question.

7 ? Someone really dooped you, man. The meaning of life is that The Universe is infinite and can`t be explored in total, Everything will eventually die and The Universe will explode in 4,5 billion years.That doesn`t mean it`s the first time. And i`m not talking about the famous Big Bang we`re used to.

Nope God created the earth and all living creatures in 6 days and rested on the 7th day, so 6 times 7 equals 42, and there you have it, Monty Python had it right.
Just kidding, no one knows, that's why everyone asks

In "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" by Douglas Adams, the answer was 42 and the question was "what is 9x6" Now you know what's wrong with the universe. Bad math
