BallsToTheWall: What Is The Purpose Of Life?

MisterTornado 09.22.11	To get drunk get laid pass out and do it all over again
Knave 09.22.11	The purpose of life is bigger than the human brain can perceive. We are like a dog at a typewriter. We are just typing away, and hopefully after trillions of dogs type away aimlessly, one of them types a literary masterpiece. Only then can we begin to unravel this question. For now, just type away happily and hope that you happen to be the dog who hits the right keys. That's the way I always saw it at least.
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	that is good knave. I dont know about anything anymore.
Hyperion1001 09.22.11	To spread your seed as far as you can.
taroo 09.22.11	Life is a bunch of meaningless bullshit
IAmHollywood 09.22.11	Obtain contentment.
Sowing 09.22.11	there is no purpose
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	I alienate myself from everyone so spreading seed ehh..taroo is also right. Fuck everything.
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	I'm drunk and high and severely lacking tattoos and Buddy Holly glasses.
Relinquished 09.22.11	I believe the answers come around in the end. I just want to live my life as much as I can before I do myself in again and again and again.
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	All I do know is I need another Steel Reserve which I will go to the fridge and get.
Divine 09.22.11	The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. The ride goes up and down, around and around, it has thrills and chills, and it's very brightly colored, and it's very loud, and it's fun for a while. Many people have been on the ride a long time, and they begin to wonder, "Hey, is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us and say, "Hey, don't worry; don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride." And we … kill those people. "Shut him up! I've got a lot invested in this ride, shut him up! Look at my furrows of worry, look at my big bank account, and my family. This has to be real." It's just a ride. But we always kill the good guys who try and tell us that, you ever notice that? And let the demons run amok … But it doesn't matter, because it's just a ride. And we can change it any time we want. It's only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings of money. Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.
Mordecai. 09.22.11	To listen to Godspeed and opeth at least once before you die
Mordecai. 09.22.11	Go away bill hicks mine was funnier
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	Very deep voice, you know im so content with living a solitary lifestyle but then in college and at the bar I started thinking about shit. Like what could I be doing, what should I be doing, why don't I pursue my ideas and make them into reality, why dont I move out of state I like say im going to do.
sifFlammable 09.22.11	there is no meaning in life (except a biological function of reproduction) and that bugs people so they imbue other meanings into it eg social/financial success, religion also "why I dont gel with the general population" lol
iFghtffyrdmns 09.22.11	to sputnik avidly
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	I don't mind being self alienating sober, at least I dont think I dont, but when not sober shits hitting the fan. Thank god I don't do psychedelics and shrooms. Id be seeing ancient unicorn wars erupt and start soloing on the banjo for 15 hours.
Relinquished 09.22.11	I already finished my education in the school system for now. I'll just continue helping my community with my firefighter skills before I come back to my warm home in the forest to the lodge house I and others built with bare hands where I'll continue my martial arts training until my body can't take the stress.
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	You live in the forest man? So jealous, I would love to give up my internet, tv and phone permanently one day and go back to the basics, live a minamilist lifestyle.

toxin. 09.22.11	You're going to get the worst fucking answers on Sputnik lol. I don't even know. I've thought about it and never come to a good conclusion. I only know what I want from my life before I die. Is that the absolute purpose of life? I don't know, but somehow I doubt it.
Relinquished 09.22.11	if I die again I want to be reincarnated as a wolf and find my body and devour it
toxin. 09.22.11	also lol @ IAmHollywood (@andcas was that a jab at me or just people in general? can't tell)
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	I want to die and be reborn as an oak tree. And then become an ent.
AlonsoHarris 09.22.11	Just a simple choice, right now, between fear and love. The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love instead see all of us as one. Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace. (hippie shit)
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	WHERE ART THOU ROMEO
acorncheese 09.22.11	i've thought about this very, very deeply and intensely for the last 9 months of my life. i'm talking REALLY intense to the point where it's caused me anxiety and stress. weird shit man. don't think too hard on it.
wabbit 09.22.11	" I would love to give up my internet, tv and phone permanently one day and go back to the basics, live a minamilist lifestyle." I have a lot of family friends who are hippies (not the BS publicity kind, the real kinda) and don't have power at their house. I love going up there and getting drunk and smoking weed with them
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	I just want to not give a fuck about brushing my teeth twice a day and taking a shower or two every day. Fuck it all, the expectations, the dreams and evrything.
AlonsoHarris 09.22.11	Then be homeless. Denounce capitalism and live in the woods.
North0House2 09.22.11	To take a satisfying crap.
someguest 09.22.11	the shit I took today: it was solid, but the chunks were repetitive
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	Taking a crap in the woods last March was incredibly refreshing. Fcuk toilets.

Wolfhorde 09.22.11	You mean the soon to be re-established reich of the moon-nazis. o/
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	WATCHING SOME CRAZY MORMON CARTOON, FUCKING WITH MY MIND. OCCULTIC RITUALS CELESTIAL SEX/ Dude. You know Germany got fucked over with the treaty of versailles, Hitler never would have been hitler if he could have stayed with the army.
paxman 09.22.11	There is no purpose. There is no scheme, no design, no reason. We're just the result of our parents who were results of their parents. Just decide on some goals and go after them. Personally, I want to see cancer cured before I die, and a law that is passed prohibiting couples from having more than three children.
Wolfhorde 09.22.11	"Dude. You know Germany got fucked over with the treaty of versailles, Hitler never would have been hitler if he could have stayed with the army. " Treaty of versailles is pretty much past so I couldn't care less, I didn't have to pay for it anyway. Oh.. and.. I reiterate: moon nazis, ma'fucka. Esoteric hiterlism, duuuuuuuuuuuuude.
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	Paxman that is sensible albeit I dont technically have any real goals atm. MOON NAZIS
Wolfhorde 09.22.11	YEAH, FUCKING MOON NAZIS, WITH FUCKING SPACESHIPS LIKE THE THE IMPERIAL FUCKERS IN STAR WARS.

toxin. 09.22.11	"underage people who give life advice from their parents home xtoxin." That could be me literally. Luckily I'm not actually giving advice so I'll pretend like I avoid this description
jungletiger 09.22.11	read up on eastern philosophy: lao tzu, chuang tzu, buddhism
BallsToTheWall 09.22.11	Dude havent read up on Buddhism in almost 2 years. That wasone of the best courses I took though.
TheNotrap 09.22.11	Personally I believe life's a journey trough bad and good moments that built some kind of an individual character. This individual character will choose different paths along the way. The paths you choose defines you. In my case I have chosen to make music, having true friends and built up a family that I'm very proud of. What Is The Purpose Of Life? Trying to find some happiness along this hard journey and make something that makes you proud of (family, art,...). That's my concept of immortality and probably my meaning of life.
liledman 09.22.11	the purpose of your life is whatever you want it to be. life in general has no intrinsic value, you give it meaning.
rockandmetaljunkie 09.22.11	There is no purpose. Everything is in vain.
bakkermaarten007 05.18.12	Late on this list, but I highly believe that our lives are only worth living if we can truly dedicate our bodies and souls to persons we love. Only then we can become at peace with ourselves, float away from our animal nature and our materialistic needs. To create something more beautiful than the the beauty of life, sacrifice and love. It's something only humans are capable of, but seldom seen in completion. That's how I feel about it, until then I'll just be wandering soul on this planet earth.
Wolfhorde 05.18.12	Ramen.
someguest 05.19.12	"Late on this list, but I highly believe that our lives are only worth living if we can truly dedicate our bodies and souls to persons we love.

It's something only humans are capable of, but seldom seen in completion." Wow. You're full of shit, aren't you?
MeatSalad 05.19.12	There is no true purpose to life, you just choose to either accept society and meld into it, or you don't and do your own thing. In the end it doesn't matter. Nothing matters.
Neurisis of Luna 05.19.12	this is the first time I noticed you listing 7. awesome.
Relinquished 05.19.12	yeah sweet
someguest 05.19.12	I've met some really cool people lately. People who, you know, like to think and stuff. It's been nice.
HitlerIsGod 05.19.12	Sputphilosophy
MeatSalad 05.19.12	Yeah just noticed how fucking old this list is
MeatSalad 05.19.12	Why i oughta
spillingmercury 05.19.12	Life only has as much purpose as we devote to it. /guitar solo
bakkermaarten007 05.19.12	"yeah the kraut bumped it" Does my name sound German to you? And nothing against Germans btw.
bakkermaarten007 05.19.12	"The purpose of life is to die. How is this even debatable?" That's the outcome, if it were the purpose we might as well all just commit suicide. How is THAT even debatable?
owen 05.19.12	The purpose of life is having fun with it untill ends
YouGotLucky 05.19.12	New Deftones.
bakkermaarten007 05.19.12	"You can't earn a rightful death by killing yourself." Unless it happens with a samurai sword. "The only certain outcome of all life is death." There, you said it yourself: outcome.
bakkermaarten007 05.19.12	I get you. But in the literal sense 'finishing your life' is just ending it. What you're saying is finishing your life as in a task, complete your life. But what are the things you have to in order to attain that completion, that is what I mean with purpose. What are your tools (so to say) to become happy before you die? Read my first comment in this thread, these are my tools =)
drewcordova 05.19.12	On a purely biological level, life is about procreation. Our species enjoys sex so much because the propagation of our species is important to our survival. Religion has been trying to answer the question outside of biology for millennia, and without success. What you decide is important in your life will change through the decades, so you will never have a hard and fast answer as to what life is about. The only thing that has put my life in perspective is having a son. The second he was born was when I knew my place in the world.
TheJackal 05.19.12	This deep shit is just depressing If death is the purpose of life, then whats the point in living? stupid idea
Maniac! 05.19.12	First one to marry Laura Stevenson will find the meaning to life and will have, in turn, won life.
Inveigh 05.19.12	it's probably not too hard to get a chubby singer-songwriter to shack up with you
TheJackal 05.19.12	well yeah thats true in the literal sense, but do you only eat for nourishment, or because it tastes good? so I suppose you're right in a literal sense, but its what you do before the end of your life that defines whether you have reached your purpose imho the only purpose in life is to become the best person you possibly can in your unique circumstances although atm I just wanna have fun and am way to young to think about shit like this (havent even finished uni )
Maniac! 05.19.12	"it's probably not too hard to get a chubby singer-songwriter to shack up with you" Holy shit dude that was low
Inveigh 05.19.12	I think the first step to achieving understanding to start calling it "college"
TheJackal 05.19.12	A university is not the same as a college
Wolfhorde 05.19.12	How about living life instead of pondering what it is about, ultimately the answer will be wrong anyway.
Tyrael 05.19.12	The meaning of life is whatever you want it to be so for me that's nothing For a lot of people it's 'being happy' whatever the fuck that means
Wolfhorde 05.19.12	"The meaning of life is whatever you want it to be" Basically the only answer that is on a "human level" and not somewhat half-assed.
NWOAHM666 05.19.12	To piss off people. 4 rules BTW.
Sirob 05.19.12	42 no shit
