realizing that life is hopeless affair that will end in your death
It is also a waste of time:
- making someone happy
- being nice to kids
- holding the door for someone
- smiling
- being pleasant at the store, when someone makes a mistake
- saying something nice
- being polite
- being well dressed
- regular bathing
- saying something pleasant or instructive on a internet forum
and you really know these optional cause there are people that don't
If chess is a waste of time, then so is:
watching Game of Thrones,
and listening to music,
and playing a video game,
and reading poetry,
and looking at Facebook,
and sex (unless trying to get pregnant),
and playing poker,
and drinking a beer.
What's wrong with "wasting time"? Should life really be only about work and making money? Are we a bunch of puritanical workaholics? Must we feel guily about experiencng a little enjoyment once in a while?
SPOT ON!
