Speakin' only for myself: I like livin'. I'm glad and grateful to be alive. That vote above for It is better to live than never to have been born., that's mine.

Had we never been born, we would not have to experience suffering, shame, nor face inevitable death. But I'm the one who chose, "I don't know" (if that makes the "think positive" people happier).

Who are these think positive folks you speak of?

That is not even a complete sentence, not for formal grammar.
Better, what is the relative difference which defines better and worse. Those terms are relative, not absolute.
Damn.
Is this bar stool philosophy?

With your big fat arse with a large anal hole you'd probably slide all the way to the floor on that bar stool.

Life is a wonderful, glorious gift, and we should all make the most of it.

Making the observation that life entails some bad (along with some good) is accurate, yet incomplete. Since both "good" and "bad" are relative terms, one cannot experience only good, because if one did, that would be "average" by definition, thus not good at all.
