Why your exsistence is more worthless than you previousy thought it was.

[Tonus]

I figure that my life and accomplishments will be worthless to me the moment I die. Until then they have meaning to me and I will try to enjoy my life and bring some joy to the lives of others, even though those will also cease to mean anything to me when I die.

Yeah, some time in the far future our Sun will explode and swallow up the Earth. By the time that happens humanity will probably have been extinct for a very long time. All of this will take place long before the whole universe spits out its last iota of energy and goes dark forever and ever. Or maybe not. Either way, I won't be around to experience it. So I guess my existence and my actions will cease to have any meaning and have been utterly futile. But until then, there are cheeseburgers to eat, video games to play, and porn sites to whack off to.

I feel better now.

Is eating porn sites, playing cheeseburgers and whacking off to video games also a valid option?

I just want to take a moment to thank all the atheists who frequent this forum for the insights they have given me. Thank you.

I have my own rather technical reasons for believing nihilism is bogus, but the responses on this and other common questions by every day atheists and humanists teaches me things I probably wouldn't know otherwise.

So to all that contribute their own slice of the pie, thank you, you have enriched my life.

I want to thank rasetsu for a sig pic that allows me to fantasize about meeting a quirky girl in a secluded corner behind a stack of library books.
"Miss Librarian, I'm sorry, this book is over a month late."
"Oh, you HAVE been naughty, haven't you?"
Boom chicka bow wow.

. . . OR something less creepy, because I just realized I'm drunk right now and shouldn't be pushing that reply butto. . . .

Nietzsche's misquote: "Giacomo Leopardi: 'Nothing lives that were worth thy pains, and the earth deserves not a sigh. Our being is pain and weariness, and the world is mud—nothing else. Be calm.' "

“Rest forever, tired heart.
The final illusion has perished.
The one we believed eternal is gone.
Just like that. Out the door desire
follows hope. Rest forever.
Enough throbbing. Nothing deserves your attention
nor is the earth worth a sigh.
Bitterness and boredom is life,
nothing else ever, and the world is mud.
Quiet now. Despair for the last time.
Fate gives us dying as a gift.
Now turn from the hills, the ugly hidden power
which rules for the common evil
and the infinite vanity of it all.”
― Giacomo Leopardi

I've always found that quote calming. Everyone I've introduced it to reacts in horror.
