I make keychains out of them . <| sep |> Need some oil for those ? <| sep |> You have an extremely limited definition of matters . So nothing matters if you won ' t remember it after death ? Why are you bothering to type this then ? Neither of us will remember it after we die . Neither will anyone who reads it . There ' s certainly no objective measure for the value of this conversation . I ' m willing to wager that you ' re typing this because you ' re getting something out of it . What exactly that is , I dunno . Maybe you ' re getting off on acting like you know what you ' re talking about . Regardless , it matters enough for you to expend the energy . See , you keep saying you know what this phrase is trying to say , but I ' m pretty sure you don ' t . You ' re clearly too blinded by your edgelord interpretation of nihilism to grasp that something doesn ' t have to stay with us beyond death to matter . You ' re welcome to lay in your bed and die if you wish , going on and on about how there ' s no big picture and thus everything is bleak and meaningless . Others , however , will find meaning in the reality of their lives . Nihilism doesn ' t mean life is meaningless . It just means that whatever meaning our lives have has to be decided by us . There is no objective metric because it is an entirely subjective matter . I find meaning in my writing , for example , and in spending time with people I love . Perhaps you would find no value in such things , that ' s up to you . I make no objective claims about MY meaning having some objective worth , I don ' t pretend that my actions will lead to some grand design . They do , however , matter to me .
