Sorry, I don't think I worded it right...

I'm not actively seeking to kill people or anything, I meant that if we all died instantly, I don't think anyone would be at loss. People who were permanently suffering woudn't have to suffer anymore and those who enjoyed life wouldn't have a functioning brain to miss anything.

I mean it's just my opinion that the world would be better off dead, it's not my life goal to kill everyone :P

I didn't think you meant you had any interest in killing. The point is that if you are indifferent enough to the thoughts and feelings of others that you would have no problem ending civilization, then you may be severely antisocial or depressed. Nihilism is a disease, IMO.

Care to expand on this a little? For some people it's a valid way of making sense of a nonsensical universe.

Because I think I read you hate GIFs I am refraining from posting a Big Lebowski clip. Also, I suppose it is not particularly thought-provoking or relevant.

My streak of never posting a GIF to Hubski (that I can remember - someone correct me if I am wrong, but I would be surprised) continues!
