In a TV discussion, someone said "Oh, this is all, how many angels dance on the head of a pin. We are beyond that". Hell, I missed the resolution- How many was it?

It is a rhetorical statement implying that it is a ridiculous discussion over an unanswerable hypothetical question.

God even has good advice for stuff like this:
2Ti 2:23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
How could anybody doubt that this sage advice comes straight from the mouth of God?

As many as want to. That is part of the standard skills that angels have. It was debated and proven in the Middle Ages.

The question has been around for centuries, and the religious have been arguing the questions for hundreds of years. But the question is, does it really matter?

42, but they all had to take a dump before climbing onto the head of the pin.

I think they were stating that that statement is a bit old hat and life is just SOOOOOooooo much more sophisticated than that now (Note the sarcasm).
