Life is like an Ice skating competition. A white , beautiful skating rink , slippery and cold . You zip through suitably equipped. you slip, fall , get up and go again. Sometime you take a partner with you to add to this thrill and you two, do in perfect synchronisation.
Initially you do this to win something , to please the gallery. But, as you glide through you forget yourself in the art and in the rhythm and you enjoy the thrill.
If you sit in the gallery all the time and keep watching others perform and you clap and clap and clap .... your life is futile. get into the ring and play. Play hard.

The continuation of DNA (as someone else said) is not futile, because it will absolutely be successful at continuing and furthering futility.
There are a few irrevocable laws discovered by your fellow man in his understanding of the universe:
1) For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
2) The law of large numbers.
Which means, everything is futile, because whatever you do, there will be opposing reactions. Large numbers will ensure that eventually, this is absolutely true.

We have the ability to create our own reality. Human has an instinct on the survival of his body (most of the time, anyway) and now we want also to leave a legacy. Without these memories, we are just fleeting being, an imperceptible event with no relevance in the course of the universe (at least not with intention). Life is not necessarily futile, since it can find the way to reach power, trascendance, peace and justice.

Yes, except for the continuation of the DNA.

Often. But the alternative isn't exactly amusing either.

I think it is not so, on the contrary, it is an exercise in success, achievement and contentment as well.

Yes, unless you find the answer in the Holy Bible.
