I started to write you an answer, but I decided against it.

I'm getting real tired of people saying, "My friends don't think that way, why don't you prove it?"

It's just lazy. I quoted a book. Did it occur to you to read it? WTF? Is that too much to ask?

I mean, if you don't think existential angst exists, state your argument and back it up. I'm not doing the thinking for you, sorry.

(I know you just happen to be the last one in a long line and I don't mean to take it out on you, but this type of questioning is becoming epidemic.)
