I'd probably commit suicide.

There's no meaning in a life like that.
What's the point in living the rest of your life if you hit your absolute peak in your early 20's?

The early twenties is the peak for everyone though. It's all downhill from there. Weight gets put on easier, hair loss kicks in, get stuck in a dead end job, ect. For people like me that missed out on having fun in their youth, they're just stuck with hating the rest of their life.

I imagine cuddling is all the proof I'll need that God exists, tbh fam.

You wanna cuddle?

 Tfw no one to nuzzle my face into their chest at night.

I'm hoping to have the chance when I go to the Bahamas during spring break. If not, I'll just go back to masturbating while crying myself to sleep at night.

ok

the back-and-forth nature of this site should remind you of a '90s soap opera

You're right, both are really shitty.

But I need to know if Carlos was killed by the Mexican drug lord and if Esperanza got to have her Quinceañera. We're talking Spanish soaps, right?

Kill them.

I'm just saying, there is no point to workout and eat healthy unless it's for sports.

Trying to get your dick wet?

K.

You only get in a hot tub with someone you're gonna fuck

So I should have masturbated in there?

So, how was it?

Yes, have some morals damn it!

Sorry bby.

I'm just honestly waiting for my body to give out on me.

to substitute taking a shower?

The only thing that matters, according to the nihilist, is himself.

That isn't nihilism, that's hedonism. Because I honestly don't even give a fuck about myself. I just don't have the mental fortitude to off myself.

They may claim to be ideological nihilists who are still owned by their biological, psychological desires--but the thing is, under their beliefs, they could commit all sorts of atrocities--and that's what's scary about it.

Saying that nothing matters is not the same as saying I will do whatever pleases me. You're right, a nihilist will say it doesn't matter how good or bad you are because in the grand scheme of things it doesn't. And you're also right that a nihilist will most likely concede that living out of self-interest is the best way to live. However, there is the caveat of there being a legal system which deters "improper" behavior from occurring. You don't think I wouldn't like to do drugs out the ass, bang hookers, and do any other hedonistic behavior until I die and cease to exist? I would, but in our system that exist prevents that from occurring by locking out higher paying jobs with drug test, felony records make it impossible to work, ect. So conforming to social standards is the best way to enjoy at least delayed gratification.

To a nihilist, none of that matters. Suffering doesn't matter. Pain doesn't matter. We're all going to die anyway--so it doesn't make a difference.

It really doesn't, without sapience occurring after death, we have no way to comprehend anything. Without consciousness to recall information, actions are essentially meaningless. Best example I could give would be someone going to an amusement park to have a brain injury occur on a ride which made him forget the whole day. Without the ability to recall said information, that person might as well not have been there in the first place.

The flaw in this reasoning is that it's bereft of compassion, selflessness, and most importantly, forethought. They do not take into account that, when people die, that doesn't mean everyone else does. Life will continue to exist for many, many centuries, regardless of how many people die today--and it's our duty, morally, to protect them.

In a sentence: Nihilists are dangerous because they have no sense of ethics.

I truly do not see a reason to care for others on some mass scale, sorry. Any care I show to others is due to the fact that it is mutually beneficial to us both. The interdependence that occurs in a friendship makes both parties happy and is hedonistic in that regard. Also, there is next to no one that has a bleeding heart for all the suffering in the world, not just nihilists. As the saying goes, one death is a tragedy; one million is a statistic.
