Nihilism
Nihilism
[Beret Guy and Cueball approach a tree while talking.] Cueball: There is no God. Our existence is without purpose. Beret Guy: Oh, definitely. Beret Guy: We are adrift in an uncaring void indifferent to all our mortal toil. Cueball: Exactly! In the end, nothing we do matters. [Beret Guy climbs the tree.] Beret Guy: Totally. Cueball: We just... Why are you climbing that tree? [Beret Guy is now completely submerged in the tree.] Beret Guy: Because the future is an adventure! Come on! Cueball: But-- Beret Guy: Hey! I found squirrels !

It is argued by some that atheism leads to nihilism . One rebuttal would be to reject the premise that there is no purpose outside of fulfilling divine intention, but Randall instead rejects the premise that nihilism ought to be burdensome. As a result, Beret Guy resolves that, if everything is ultimately meaningless, then it would be more fun to spend one's meaningless existence having fun rather than constantly moping. The presence of squirrels may relate to Beret Guy's head's resemblance to an acorn.
As reinforced by the title text, the complete lack of angst on Beret Guy's part is off-putting to other nihilists.
