Okay, stop going 'Why what?'
'Why?' is the ultimate question, because you can keep on asking it... There is no perfectly finite answer, no matter what you're discussing... There is always another Why?

Why is just humans trying to fulfill they're need for knowledge.  Why is the ultimate question, yes, but of course, just touching on religion a bit, many could say that the answer to "why" is always "God".  However, getting off religion, some people might just say the answer to most "Whys" is "fate".  Of course, there is always the question of "Why is fate the answer to "Why"", which would literally prbly kill me, becuase my brain is seriously not capable of that... WHY?!

Why because? (Bet you saw that coming. Very popular question when I was a kid)

the true answer to that question, is why not?

True. It could be an answer, simply because it is just as equally unanswerable as the previous question. So it serves as an answer insofar as it becomes the new primary question, thus derailing the original questioner and turning her or him into the answerer.
