This is Absurd.

You know what? Existence is absurd. The entire situation is just absurd. And any particular absurdity upon which one focuses within existence indicates nothing more than how fundamentally absurd existence is.

Life? Why is there life? Time? Space? Matter? Why? How? And, How? What sense does "how" make? What sense does sense make? What is time? Why is time? And why is why?

And if we do not focus on that fundamental absurdity and instead start with our being here then what are we doing and why are we doing it?

And if we bypass all of that and just go to work to make money to stay alive and try to have an enjoyable time while doing so...why? Because we're here?

But that's absurd. And kind of stupid. Or, not really "stupid", but it's probably mostly only supported by circular logic. Or if not circular logic then that weird thing Existentialism uses. That "We exist as we exist because we exist as we exist" sort of idea. Wait, isn't that circular logic? Or is it only circular when we question it? If we just say that we exist as we exist and never question it then is it still absurd? Was it ever?
