The Rationale for my Existential Crisis

I'm not saying I'm having an existential crisis or anything, but I'm just wondering: what's the point of it all? The pointlessness of it all? The futility of our futile endeavors? The futility of our endeavors, I say!

A Brief History of the Question

It started with the toaster. My toaster. The one that only works on Wednesdays. And only if I wear my 'I'm with stupid' t-shirt.

A Theory

I've been thinking, and I've come to the conclusion that the universe is just a big ol' simulation created by a bored programmer. And the programmer is just a bored programmer in a cubicle somewhere, twirling their hair and muttering, 'I've got to get this code out the door.'

The Conclusion

So, if we're all just living in a simulation, then what's the point of any of it? I mean, really, what's the point of any of it? Is it just to exist? To experience fleeting moments of joy and beauty in an otherwise desolate expanse of nothingness?

A Subquestion

Or maybe it's just to make fun of us? To see how long it takes for us to realize we're just pawns in a giant game of cosmic bingo?

Either way, I'm buying a lottery ticket.
