The Answer To Life, The Universe and Everything | Know Your Meme

Quote:The Answer to Life, the Universe and Everything
is a memorable phrase found in Douglas Adams’ comic science fiction novel series The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, in which the number 42 is revealed as the metanarrative that holds the key to the meaning of life. Due to its strong affiliation with online science fiction fan communities, the concept has been parodied and referenced online since the days of Usenet.

Origin
In the original radio series of The Hitchhiker’s Guide To The Galaxy, which aired on BBC Radio 4 in 1978, the supercomputer Deep Thought is tasked with coming up with the the “answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything.” After 7.5 million years of painstaking calculations, the computer reveals that answer to be the number 42, however, it fails to explain the meaning because it does not know “the ultimate question.” As a result, the Earth is built as a second supercomputer to provide the ultimate question.

69 is from Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, but I can't find a complete clip on youtube
