Is there a deep meaning or are we all just going thru the motions while waiting for the grim reaper's call. :tradmill:


Apart from sex booze and rock and roll? Drugs for those who partake and art for those who wish to leave a mark, other than that fuck all. So best we just enjoy it as it is not a dress rehearsal.

You live a very sad meaningless existence?

But that would be a different question, Rolly. :laughing: :header: A bit too personal. People would have to talk about their own personal life (and all the dynamics in it ). I don't really want to hear about anyone's personal life.

The title is a classic philosophy question that has been asked for millennia. It's worth asking it every so often.

Bullshit. You only bumped this old thread because your recent thread got moved to the Snug.

You were determined to get your own way, weren't you? :gigglesnshit:

Existential nihilism essentially.

Basically, do what you feel the need to do within reason, i.e. don't go around killing people etc., but once you snuff it, you can't take any of it away with you. Game over in other words.

I knew someone who went about saying ‘life’s nae rehearsal’ - inspired by the arse that was Jim Morrison and I thought ‘nae luck ya scoob’ because he’d spent that long being an arse he was fucked.

What's a scoob?

I know if somebody says 'I haven't got a scooby', as in Scooby Doo (Cockney rhyming slang for clue).

To occupy space and support life. That by no meens is a simple answer. A less complicated answer I find to be "why not? I can't think of anything better than filling my memory with everything that is Good.

no slang that time, just a straight up insult. Scooby Doo isn't exactly the smartest.

We appear to be the thinking element of the universe or at least this small corner of it.
We are stardust but we are thinking and feeling stardust.

positive and negative. do You have an issue with even and odd numbers? it is a simple equilibrium. You derive meaning from Your ability to observe and interpret meaning. I can't Do that for You

why place positive before negative? binary, if 1 is odd then 0 must be even?
