How many people Think that Life is just a Total Waste of Time in this Endless Universe ?

There is a thread on the go here now asking if Chess is just a total waste of time. However one might ask if life on this tiny little planet is of any importance in relation to an endless Universe ?
--- We have a thread on the go here that claims Einstein once said that Chess is a waste of time. Well when we consider the type of things that he was thinking about over his lifetime ( the origin of the Universe, etc ) one would probably say that playing Chess was a waste of his time however I would say that things are a bit different for the rest of us.
Well it seems that people have less time to waste posting here in this thread ( I wonder what the heck they are all doing out there lol ).
You could say that life and everything within it is a waste of time because of the infinite size and inevitable fate of the universe, but by that definition nothing could logically have meaning, so it's not a particularly useful angle to approach things from.
Waste or invesment of time ?
