Not no point, no meaning... but no 'inherent' point, no 'objective' meaning.

But if we really want to get into the nitty gritty, then I would class the 'grand scheme of things' as simply the universe as a whole. I guess it would only apply to the laws of the universe because we only understand things within those parameters. In my opinion trying to come up with theories based on things outside the laws of the universe is impossible, because it is uncomprehendable as to what might be outside the laws of the universe.
And the schemer? WHY GOD OFCOURSE! lol jk, he don't exist
The laws of the universe are intersubjective at best, the neutrinos ignore some of these entirely, tachyon particles do some sort of trippy stuff with time, and nobody even knows if gravitons are responsible for gravity or not!
(please don't kill me, actual physicists... this is just me poking fun at random things)We've even changes some of those Ol' laws... examples being Newton's and Einstein's laws.
Quote:I was agreeing up until, "and I find that all the cool groups believe nihilism to at least be worth an occasional joke". WHATS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN!
It is 'supposed' to mean that even jokes have worth, and anyone cool at least gives it that much value
Keep in mind that I also joke about blood, gore, and tigers ripping apart iguanas in cages and eating their livers 
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
