The Best Nihilist and Existentialist Humor From Around the Web
You know all those cliches about comedians being depressed and artists struggling with mental illness? Well, in my experience they're mostly true. Living in Los Angeles — arguably the creative capital of the world — I'm surrounded by some of the most simultaneously talented AND self-loathing people I've ever met. In other words, I'm in good company in LA! One thing that never fails to make me laugh is poking fun at my perennial state of ennui. So this week I've rounded up some of my favorite existentialist and nihilist humor from around the web.
