42= Pizza.

Its tasty and life reaffirming, It is your best friend on a lonely night, It still is there in the morning and don't care about your breath, It never calls you fat or lazy, It never moves with all your stuff while your at work, It's always there (in 30 min or less) to make you happy and ever asks any thing in return.
