What is...
...the meaning of life?
Just though I'd ask - I'm a bit bored today.

It is the nature of humans (some, anyway) to want to find meaning in things. This is a construct of our minds, and not anything objective. Life is meaningless in itself, each of us gives it meaning - for ourselves. You may think that you're a precious individual, but actually you are a big meat robot that helps DNA replicate itself.
Have a nice day

So, the meaning of life is...meaningless.

if you breathe...
... in and out, and look around and listen...
And forget "yourself", you will know something, but you won't be able to tell anybody about it.

Hmmm...if you really believe that, then you must lead a very bleak existance.
The meaning of life is simply experience and learning. Fortunately, I don't believe I am a big meat sack. I have a soul.

on the contrary...
I am a happy joker, sometimes pissed, I learn for the sake of learning, enjoy myself, like to eat foods of different cultures, skydive, rootrootroot for the hometeam.... but does any of that MEAN anything. I guess i'm just a pure experience, from the subconscious, no edit guy

leave it a little bit better than the way you found it. make a positive (what you believe is positive) difference, no matter how small.
wow, that's open to interpretation.
