Re: does the pointlessness of your life bother you?
it bothers me but i'm not totally convinced that life is in fact pointless.
it's like this see; around 1900 they said that physics was dead and nothing new would ever come up except for more and more sophisticated versions of old ideas.
Now, given the relevations of relativity and qm, can you really say that we already know as much as we ever will?
I think not, despite the fact that the question in OP is not confined to science but to the more generalized question of philosophy and "why are we here?". but I would argue that philisophical ideas are expanding as well though i have no background in philosophy.
