“The answer to all questions is 42.”
From my sister, who is teaching in an elementary school this year:
I was subbing for my favourite second grade class and we had just read today’s version of Weekly Reader. I was asking them questions about it… I think the topic was space. One of the kids was like “42, Miss Miller.” I was like wait, what? I was trying not to laugh because that had absolutely NOTHING to do with my question, and he was like, “The answer to all questions is 42.” How does a punky little 7 year old come up with that? :) It makes me want to watch the movie of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy again.
We don’t know if the kid has subversive parents or if he just came up with 42 on his own.
She doesn’t always use “like” like that. Honest.
