The #2 pencil. The number indicated the hardness of the lead, and I was always under the impression #2 was soft.

idk my friend who made it said the lemonade part was correct. so it either has the word lemonade in it or it has to do with lemonade. I just have to figure out what the box and pencil mean. i've been trying to simplify them in my mind to try to find the answer.

dunno. and another hint he gave me: the number 2 on the pencil is just there to reiterate the idea that it is a pencil. "2" has no meaning to the riddle.

Just posting so I can see the answer when it's figured out.. I swear I've seen this before but I can't remember where or what the answer was.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

Okay, so "lemonade" is slang for "urine," and "number 2" is a euphemism for poo.
I think he wants you to poo in the box.

I'd hazard aguess that the pencil is a 2B maybe it's "to be or not to be" as for the sqaure not sure on that.
Maybe you need to "think outside the box" to solve the riddles?

Lem over Aid = Lem'on'ade, but that is obvious... too damned obvious. I say we get all mathematical with this bitch;
'Lem' in binary = 010011000110010101101101 'Ade' in binary = 010000010110010001100101
Using Shift & Subtract binary division, we calculate that Lem divided by Ade = 1.0010101100010100001110110111100100111111101100100101, or 1.1682774706857313 decimal.
The perfect square obviously means I should find the square root of this result. sqrt(1.1682774706857313) = 1.080868849900732
Now, the number 2 'pencil'.... This is a play on words. Take the first part 'pen'. The pen is mightier than the sword. It is powerful, and the pencil is number 2, so we are being told to take the previous answer to the power of 2.
1.080868849900732^2 = 1.1682774706857313 (right back where we started).
Now for the second part of the word pencil. 'cil' is obviously referring to the mathematical 'ceiling' function.
ciel(1.1682774706857313) = 2.
2 is your answer, OP.
You're welcome.
