In his Sci-Fi masterpiece "The Hitch-Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy", Douglas Adams wrote that, after pondering for several million years, the collossal computer 'Deep Thought' derived the answer to life, the universe and everything to be 42.

If you could ask, what would your ultimate question be and would you agree that the answer is 42?
(Just interested)

Hnn, my ultimate question.
It would be: Why do those that claim they have a higher education/smarter/make more money have the need to bash/decry/humiliate those that are not higher educated/smarter/make more money?
( and i mean this in a context that the underdog didn't do anything to deserve the decrying/bashing)

my first guess to it is: ego, its all about ego.
all ego and no deceny for someone who claims to have 'higher education' and that bashing the underdog would be a waste of time?
(something like the : dont argue with an idiot )

but sure, given human nature the sure answer to everything is/will be 42.

My question would be: What was my real reason to be in this life?
And no, it would piss me off if the answer was a number.
