Gotta admit it's growing on me. Subtle, unique, something veteran members can have fun with as newer members inevitably get around to asking, "okay, so ... what up with 42?"

42 does have a unique wit to hit. (Which does reflect most everyone here)

The heck with it. Until and unless we come up with something better (or the math turns out to be wrong) ... 42 it is.

Two early favorites in my mind ...

Everything Else, which has a certain simple elegance (not to mention is alliterative, one of my very favorite things), and 42. which is not only very clever, but offers the added attraction of being able to make fun of people who need it explained.  secret




Let the ribbing begin.  Can someone explain 42 to me?

 

 




Don't feel bad. I didn't get it either. Not ever having spent as much as a second looking at 'Hitchhikers Guide' (in any form), without having it explained to me, I would never have known.

Philistines. :)

No sweat, though. I'm not married to it. If/when we come up with a better option it's easy enough to change.

Just occured to me some folks might think it's an homage to Charley Taylor. bandana

LOL - Never occurred to me it was Mr Taylor's number when I suggested it. I was all about Mr Douglass' definition.

BTW, do the posts count in this forum? (winky winky)


42's fine with me. As Om mentioned, it reminds me of Charley Taylor

I'm partial to "back porch" because here in AZ that's where all the lounging takes place.

There are no side porches here, haha.
