How many characters does this phrase have?

We all know the answer is 42, but what is the question? I will resolve to whichever question is my favorite.

Criteria I will use to determine my favorite include:

  • Is the question profound, or does it at least sound profound (like pseudo-wisdom)?

  • Does it make sense for the answer to be 42?

  • Is it funny?

  • Textual evidence from Douglas Adams's works

  • Originality and creativity

However, it is at my sole discretion, so if I decide I like a question for some reason other than the criteria mentioned above, I can still resolve it that way.
