Who could have ever imagined that a cartoon would be created around
Absurdism and Existentialism and the endless hilarity of both
Absurdism simply points out that Humans are obsessed with "The Meaning of life"
Whilst simultaneously ignoring all evidence that the Universe cares not for thee

Good GRIEF. I got through 3 1/2 minutes but how could you POSSIBLY watch that for over 17 minutes? That was totally devoid of any entertainment value at all. Unless of course it got a whole lot better after 3 1/2 minutes.

That's very existential of you to skip the video right at the part about existentialism
Cool
