Your worldview is even worse. At least I'm honest in my egoism.

Ridiculous. Without coming into existence there is nothing anyway - by that logic, coming into existence is always a pleasure too, it’s always a joy, it’s always a triumph and a fulfillment. Existence is always existence, nothing is always nothing. It’s a useless tautology.

If you’d rather be nothing then give up on living. I’m perfectly happy existing.
