I may be cute, but I'm not being salty - semantics is meaning.

se·man·tics
səˈman(t)iks/
noun
noun: semantics; noun: logical semantics; noun: lexical semantics
- the branch of linguistics and logic concerned with meaning.

Experience is not a synonym for meaning, which is the move you made in your argument:

The problem I have with this outlook is one of experience. Even if our lives are finite blips in the ether, the experiences our lives give us during that time should not be disregarded so easily as nihilism advocates. While "meaning" may be subjective in its intent, if one replaces "meaning" with "experience" that changes the formula.

Nihilism doesn't disregard or critique "experience" as invaluable/non-worthwhile...it disregards the idea that any of the various moralities people cling to imbibes life with any kind of "meaning" or that such moralities can themselves create worthwhile meaning for one's experiences.

The point is ultimately, in your efforts to engage and critique MrPopo's philosophy, you have created a strawman argument. It is similar to if someone was trying to argue your claims about shooters were referring to shmups even after you clearly stated that you meant "FPS and TPS games".

Wow, was this topic really made yesterday?? It's already at 10 pages

Anyways... I'm 22 with a boyfriend, at college, living in a poop apartment with noisy roommates. (next semester I should be living with my bf though)

Generally I have a really hard time setting aside time for gaming. For one, I am very slow at cleaning, doing homework, and cooking (a 45min - 1 hr dish generally takes me 2 or 3hr). I'm also not that great at juggling my interests (gaming, learning Japanese, and drawing are my main ones). Finally I'm very easily stressed, and when I'm too stressed I want to do nothing.

So usually I'm trying to keep up with homework, school, food and other life things, then either something happens which makes me too stressed to do much else, or I can actually use my free time. Then it's a bit random on what interest I choose to do, but generally I feel bad about not doing one of the others ><;

So really it's a miracle that I get anything done ._.
