The Meaning of Life
It is the eternal human pondering. What is the meaning of life? Why are we here, who or what are we?
Many say it is to serve whatever deity it is that they worship. Others say it is to make more babies. Still others believe it is the journey that matters, what you do with your life, and how you improve upon yourself and others.
I have struggled with this question for many many years. What is the meaning of life? More importantly, what is the meaning of life to me?
I like children but I don’t know if I’ll ever have any. If the meaning of life was to have children, then there are many who go unfulfilled by choice or by design.
I don’t believe in any deities, and will not serve one. The idea that the meaning is only to serve a god who doesn’t make his presence known to all so there is no question is an absurd one, in my eyes.
It wasn’t until today, watching my dog play in the park that it hit me, like a load of manure.
When she squatted to defecate for her third time that day, I looked at her and said “Is that what you’re all about, dog?”
That’s IT! That explains everything about the meaning of life! ALL LIFE CREATES WASTE! Gods aren’t proven, only females have children, but everybody poops!
That is the one thing that is common to everything. Even plants, by way of respiration, take in nutrients and expend waste.
There you have it then. We exist to process nutrients and the excretion of waste. It’s the one thing that’s mutually exclusive to any and ALL forms of life, from simple bacteria and protozoa all the way to blue whales and men.
Boy am I glad I came to this realization, because now I know I’m successful in life.
Successful at least once a day, sometimes twice!
I likey the booooooobies!...

Well … yeah … but then there’s that “dying” thing.

wow… thats a diff take on life…
I need to ponder… lol…
“If the meaning of life was to have children, then there are many who go unfulfilled by choice or by design.”
How eloquent you are! As you know I have struggled with not being able to bring forth the fruit of my loins. I feel much better for having read that.
… and it has nothing to do with how much i truly enjoy a poo.
Funny, I was thinking about shrimp the other day and wondered why their intestines are straight and ours are snaked. Big, big questions.
When I crap I often start quoting Plato and Aristotle. Einstein’s formula’s and the law of physics come to mind. God wants us to poop so that we can honestly say, “Hey, look at me bitch. I’m full of shit!”
Now I’m worried because I never poop.
Spaz, I don’t know how I can possibly thank you enough. (And before you ask, no, I won’t be sending you a large cheque or, for the benefit of your American readers, check.) I have long pondered and become frustrated by my lack of answers to that age-old question, what is life’s purpose? Thanks for providing the definitive answer. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go take a crap.

Joe: Also, there’s that taxation thing!
Arv: sometimes the best pondering is done on the can.
Vy: You and I have an extra special gift completing the meaning of life
Hungry: It’s to make it easier to clean them out so we can eat them and make more poo.
Red: Bravo! Nicely done. You sir, are smarter than most!
Bee: It’s ok, pooting counts.
Joel: Make sure you eat lots of fiber!
You found a way to incorporate poo into a meaning of life post! I am utterly impressed!

Man’s best friend delivers again. Just when you think that dogs have been put to work on all kinds of jobs, here comes a pooch who has taught you philosophy.
Or should I call it “poolosophy”? If Newton was inspired by the apple falling on his head why can’t Spaz get inspired by poo falling down to the ground from his dog’s ass?
