The Power of 42 (and how it relates to Trump's impending win)

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - The Power of 42 (and how it relates to Trump's impending win)

Posted: 10/28/2016 8:46:22 PM EDT

Arfcom has it all wrong. 42 is the best number, not 87. Since everyone else is making wild predictions, I'll make my own and back them up with the power of 42.

42 represents:

- The minimum number of states Trump will win

- The highest percentage of the popular vote that Hillary will receive

- The minimum number of times Obama will say Trump's election is a "sad day for the nation"

- The maximum number of days after the election before Bill or Hillary finally stroke out and die of some previously undisclosed illness. Preferably on national TV.

- The number of threads that will be started by #NeverTrumpers to complain about how we're screwed come January.

Now, the proof:

Arfcom always says "2 is 1, 1 is none". By that reasoning, you'd have to have 4, just to have it count as 2 (because 2 is 1!). *42*

Arfcom always says "Get both". Both implies 2. Two 2s (get both) equal 4. *42*

Arfcom fights over "9 vs 45". 9 = 4+5, so they're both the same. Both = 2. See proof above. *42*

Regarding 9: 2x9 = 18. 18-2 = 16 (same as 4^2). So 9 complements 42. *42*

Regarding 45: 2+2 =4, and yet 2+2 = 5 for large values of 2. So 45 complements 42. *42*

Both 9 and 45 complement 42. Both = 2, see previous proof. *42*

44 magnum is the best handgun round, and it has 4 two times. *42*

2+2 = 4. 4/2 = 2. 2 squared = 4. Square root of 4 = 2. It's the perfect group of numbers. *42*

But, to not completely offend all of Arfcom, I have waited until this could be post #87.

However for the atypical deplorable GD basement dweller the answer is 87, or 87 and 42.

42 was also Jackie Robinson's number, proving again how raysis Arfcom is.
