    This plan won't work, Apu in the Simpsons was a famous Indian curry thief in the 1800s, look where Hinduism got him. He was reincarnated as a Kwiki-Mart manager who gets held up twice a day by Snake.;)

    Correct. We are an incident. A blink of an eye in the universe.

    you've 2 options:

    be miserable and die
    enjoy yourself and die

    either way, you die at the end, so why not go for the better option

    the way i see it is, it will always be the 2 combined.
    you could go out to enjoy yourself all the time, but come back sometimes miserable for whatever reason, then go back out there miserable but come back a different person, for the time being i.e. until some bad crap happens to you again.

    its always going to be up and down, never straightforward, always a struggle to keep things smooth. if you let things go and don't care about anything and i mean everything then the cracks appear.

    society today is one tough jungle and it's going to get tougher and harder to enjoy it. we are over populating at a pathetic rate, technology is advancing and the no. of man powered jobs are decreasing, one is going up, the other is going down. somethings going to give.

    yep Scumlord i do agree with you, we need to get off this planet.

    There is really no 'point' to life, there never has been.
    I don't know why so many people think this is depressing. To just be alive at all is amazing. Make your own purpose in life.
    Why bother? We'll only be here for a very short time, and knowing that makes it all the more important to make the most of life.

    Life is amazing.

    Go travelling, explore, walk up mountains, find someone you love who cares about you, drink wine, watch art house movies, enjoy music, build something, write, exercise, read books, try loads of different foods, help people in need, make someone smile, live in another country for a while - you'd be surprised how much this can change your life, care for animals, get a dog or a cat, don't fight, forget about being angry all the time, forget about politicians and banks - you can't change them.

    You forgot to mention to wear sunscreen

    Awww, look at the wee things, deluding themselves into thinking life is anything but a meandering, useless quest for meaning that doesn't exist, fighting to keep the bad away despite the fact that it'll come to get you no matter what.

    Here's a pro-tip, be depressed at all time, expect the worst always. When something goes shit, you can say you called it. When it goes well, you get a nice surprise. It's win-win.

    There was a lad in Eyre Square, Galway, today. He was banged up in some mental place cos he done too much drugs.Today he was surrounded by black people(in Eyre Square) singing about Jesus n stuff. When in this mental place the roof parted and the lord appeared,
    he heard the lord speaking to him. Now he's a happy chappy.

    So I'm thinking I didn't do enough drugs to see the lord and thats why I'm a cynic who believes there is no meaning to life.

    Stay away from happy pills unless there's an actual chemical imbalance. Happy pills are no better than a dealer giving you heroin.

    Happiness is a state of mind it's the consequence of triggers. It's something that can be achieved through many different means and methods.

    There are many things that can trigger happiness you just need to find the triggers that make you happy.

    In most ancient cultures drugs where the path to god, it wasn't until the Christian faith came along and decided priests where the path to god that all that changed and the Christian religion demonised drugs.
