LOL I also thought this was funny... You guys have inspired me to improve my poker game and to use that as a major challenge in my life. Also, I've decided to volunteer at a local boxing gym as the sport of boxing has been huge in my life since childhood. I've also decided to stop being spiritually lazy and give Christ another try. After all, if there really is no point to life and there is no God, then nothing really matters.

Thanks fellas,

Now back to the tables

Look at this way: You're here now- make the most of it.

As Teddy said "Don't you worry son, it'll all be over soon"
So get out there and do something.

A bit strange, yes, but then our "family" was just her and I, and by that time she was about 20 or 21.

Traditional Yoga + Budhism or Hinduism,

Seriously. The problem is you live your life for your own pleasure. There is so much more to life than this.
Once you stop living for yourself is when you'll find happiness.

you probabily scoff at this, or it may not do anything at first.. But if you put the time in I guarntee you it will change your life forever.
I am probabily one of the most mathematically minded, skeptics you'll meet and this changed my life.
I developed a horrible chronic pain syndrome that stopped me from doing most of the things I loved, and sent me into a pretty bad depression. It was through spiritualism , meditation and yoga was how I learned to cope with the dissibilities and pain. It worked like a charm.

But you have to be willing to make steps to do it. It's not easy.
You must put yourself through pain/uncomfort in order to achieve pleasure.

Riding a motorcycle, really fast.(no helmet, natch). Camping and hiking (take along some alcohol or weed ),with friends or family. Going to live concerts, listening to new music. Going golfing. Traveling. Buy a waverunner and run the piss out of it. Bet for fun on your football team. Drink beer and argue about sports, religion, best looking pussy, best tv fighter, with friends. Or just drink or just argue, with friends. Razz your friends. Workout hard. Work on your poker game.

These are a few things that have worked for me. Basically you gotta get off your ass and make your own fun. If you are depressed and can't do it on your own, go see somebody , get some medication, there is no shame in it. Quit thinking so deep all the time. And don't knock yourself trying to figure out what it's all for or what it all means. It will drive you nuts. It's like chasing with a weak-draw, not worth it.

I probably do alotta stuff, spend bunch of time with my family or friends, partying, developing new interests, etc. so I don't have to think about that stuff. But I used to get bogged down in those thoughts years ago and I realized at a very young age this is a waste of time and makes me feel bad. I'm not going to figure it out anymore than a blind man can figure out what red looks like.

Just realize you are very fortunate to be in this place, this time, and worship by making the most of it. Have as much fun as your body can stand and then some. I went back to see some old college buddies 2 weeks ago with my son and we partied and bs'ed till the wee hours. One of them remarked on my stamina after all these years. I explained its not stamina, I'm just hyped up to be having fun, I'll sleep when I'm dead.

So get out there, or get help, or make the type of friends that will badger you both out of the house and the funk. Good luck to you. don't waste another minute.

Since many psychologists say that boredom is a defense against anger, repost this under the title "How do you guys deal with the anger of everyday life?"

It can be exhausting to keep yourself at bay day after day after day.
