Yes, I love Vonnegut.
Everybody farts around on the planet... some farted right into power then farted that power into war... others created electricity, automobiles... others farted around and drew up religions and morals...
Yet others fart around on Yahoo all day!!!

When you've Vonnegut yourself eating too much beans and broccoli, it's no wonder that we fart all day long. Eat too much meat and you'll have no run-of-the-Mill farts, but ones so smelly that you Kant imagine! The Humes are terribly smelly, but Heidegger say quieter than regular veggie farts. If you don't believe me I'd be willing to Hegel a wager. So if you're gonna get gas, better to have Decartes of refried legumes than a Plato red meats.

Hmm... well, you can't properly fart without swallowed air and well fed internal bacteria, so I would suppose you have to eat as well. This would mean we're on Earth to fart around... and eat. I guess we have to poop every once in a while too, since otherwise all the food we'd eaten would get backed up and block the farting mechanism.

I think we were originally intended just to fart around, but in our technological wisdom, we have invented the piping bag, with a range of different nozzles that mean we can now fart asquare, astar or abunchofwavylines. What amazingly creative thinkers we are...

It is my belief that we are here to experience life, or rather that this is a learning stage preparing us for the afterlife. So, I guess the short answer is yes, we are here to live.
Either that, or you could say we are here to take part in a long neverending chain of cycles in which the cycle is never broken, none of us truly matter in the long run except for the fact that we have continued they cycle.
If you really want a proper (non human) answer you might receive it in the afterworld, so be patient.

I think we are in Earth TO BE HAPPY, to enjoy living!, sharing with others who don´t have anything, some of what we got.
It´s marvelous to have a life, to have a love, to have children, to work, to do so many things as we want!
While we are here, let´s enjoy music, nature, feelings, the sky, the clouds, the rain etc.
Will you join me? he he
Have a wonderful day.

I believe that everyone has a purpose in life. I believe that Earth is a place where humans wait to go to either Heaven or Hell.

Your life is what you make of it. You can fart around if you want or you can change the world, it's your choice.

life has no meaning only computer technology helps us through our lives. most of our jobs have computer technology in them. We just have to face the fact that we can't live without technology or electricity unless you're the Amish. The Amish though have lived without technology for their whole life.

I think we're on earth to learn (learning to fart could be included).
