A joke that nerds usually make about the rounding of numbers. If you do 2.3 rounded (2) + 2.4 rounded (2), you get 4.7 which rounds to 5.
And because humans are imperfect, we are never able to make exact precision on anything. This means, that anything we do, we are doing some kind of rounding/estimation at some point. So, this means that 2 + 2 = 5 but only for very large values of 2.

2.36 rounded = 2
2.44 rounded = 2
4.8 rounded = 5
2.36 + 2.44 = 4.8
2 + 2 = 5 (when all numbers are rounded)
2.44 rounded = 2
4.8 rounded = 5
2.36 + 2.44 = 4.8
2 + 2 = 5 (when all numbers are rounded)

Get the 2 + 2 = 5 mug.In English, it is translated to "2 times 5". (Which sounds like a math equation)
But the meaning is to say that someone or a group of people that they're basically doing the same thing as someone else.
Usually a bad thing.
It could mean: "They're all just the same."

a track from radioheads "hail to the thief" amazon.com have reviewed the album they said:
"Hail to the Thief borrows equally from each. Its title implies that this will be a collection filled with songs of anger and dissent, but Radiohead no longer howl at the moon like they did on 1995's The Bends. Instead, they use eloquent metaphors and complicated arrangements to express the uncertainty, fear and anger arising from the 2000 U.S. presidential election and a post-9/11 world. There’s no doubt about where Thom Yorke and company stand; the prog-rock break on "2 + 2 = 5" and Yorke's terror at the thought of being "put in a dock" make that immediately clear"
it can be used to express strange things that have happend , and or lack any sence

Get the 5.2 alkali mug.Interesting fact: 2.4 (which rounds to 2) plus 2.3 (which rounds to 2) is equal to 4.7 (which rounds to 5).
You could then end up with 2 + 2 = 5 if you don't keep the same number of significant figures in your calculations.
