In Douglass Adams "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" books the Earth turns out to have been a super-massive computer designed to run for the purpose of coming up with the question to the answer to life, the universe and everything. Human beings and other organisms form part of the incredibly advanced matrix that serves as the computer's processor.
Then the Earth is destroyed by the Vogons to make way for an interstellar bypass minutes before it completes it's mission.
Then things get even more complicated in successive books. But the core idea is pretty funny.
And the answer is 42.
