Justify Yourself!

[Flamehero1]

A little backstory on this first. After watching an old British Sci-fi comdedy called Red Dwarf, there is one episode where a robot makes people justify their existence and if they can't deletes them from time and space and replaces them with another life, one of the sperms that didn't make it to the egg(so to speak).

Anyway this bring me to my question. Members of the Escapist, justify your existence. Why do you deserve life?

EDIT: The robot takes on the persona of the accused, therefor you are judged by yourself. The robot also believes in no god or afterlife.

Because I could cure a fatal disease one day.

Do you really wanna take that chance? Do you really want to get rid of the only guy who might be able to get rid off boneitis?! WELL?! DO YOU?!

I predict your influx of patients who were economy bigshots in the 80s is going to be extremely low.

OT: I'm going to teach whole generations of future anythings. I'll take that "Existence Approved" document to go, thanks.

I improve moral. Everyone can just look at my life and say "Wow! At least I'm not that guy."

I once won a pass the parcel contest when i was 10 and the prize contained SMALL PARTS. I could have saved some child's life!

I design nuclear reactors and analyze nuclear reactor transients to make sure they don't explode.

Why should i justify my existence? i dident chose to be given birth or life i was given. if you want to justify it ask the "creator" of me, god/mother whatever falls best for you.

I can play the banjo. Clawhammer style!

 

[Disaster Button]

I make everyone else look better, do you really wanna get rid of the guy that you can say you're at least better than?

 

[Plurralbles]

i wont' kill anybody.
directly anyway.

You can't say that for a lot of humanity.

Hey I remember that episode of Red Dwarf!

I'd justify myself by saying that I do my best to make peoples' lives better. Even when I'm in a bad mood I do my best to try and not drag others down with me.

Well in the show the robot came to the conclousion that there is no god or afterlife. It believed that every person should justify their own personal existence as it thought that living a good life was the purpose of everything.

Because if I didn't your mom would be very lonely at night.

HA! That's cute. Real cute.

Justify my existence?

Because if i didn't exist, many an idiot will go unpunished. Many a person will be misled in the wide world of comedy, and fail to discover true British comedy (and true comedy at that) until it is far too late in their lives for it to have any effect.

This is the gospel according to someone who damn well exists, and knows it.

Treated myself to a little nostalgia and bought all 8 seasons! Didn't buy those new ones with the coronnation street crossover crap thought.

Actually, I'm pretty sure you can say that for the great majority of humanity.

OT:I would have a hard time justifying my existence. Give me a few more years.

I laugh at your pitiful attempt to force me to justify an act over which I have no control. Who is this creature that dares to ask me to justify my existence? I am, I have been, and I will be. Why came to be was beyond my control, though what I make of my life shall not be constrained by pitiful minds, pitiful creatures, and pitiful challenges. But more to the point, who are you to ask me? Justify that act! How are you superior to me? Are you the immortal creator of all that is? No? Well, have you overcome the limitations of our species, have you transcended what it means to be human? No? Aw, such a shame...

majority but still, the robot has to kill everyone that has before they have the right to come for me.
