The Deep Thought Was Wrong
The answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything is not 42, but obviously "vafanculo".

that's it?
i suppose you might want to extend your reportoire by a smile. i read somewhere that to get through life one always needs a radiant smile and a vaffanculo at hand. one you already got, it seems, but the other might be more appropriate in a few rare situations (for example when life is being nice for a change, or you're talking to your future boss...).
To Ananymous: I don't have a complete proof, just many cases where "vafanculo" fits perfectly, and 42 is inappropriate :)
To vienuolika: I think we are from different sects. Check this out:

interesting.
first link: amazing drawing!!!
second link: no, i'm not going to discuss this.
however, i can't really fit myself in either of the two categories.
Did you like only the drawing or also the talk it was illustrating? I assumed that you are from the sect promoting synthetic smiles as the universal cure from all deceases. I am from the other sect, promoting to be realistic and smile only when it comes naturally. The second video is a parody to the popular culture, although a bit sarcastic. Sarcasm is a humor of desperate people. Sorry if you did not like it.
you couldn't be more wrong about me, but it's ok. I liked both, the story and the drawing, in the first one. I think the only reason in which I differ from your realisticness is that I try to not hold on to the sad things (which is different to chasing them away with fake smiles) and that I've been given the gift of finding beauty and happiness even in very very small things in the world.
I've been given a "gift" to expect beauty and happiness in everything. That is why "vafanculo" is a survival spell for me. When I am happy, I am smiling a lot. But perception of happiness is another topic and I have a lot to say on it, but may be a bit later. Thanks for the comments!
