How is it possible to like things or enjoy things when the soul-crushing truth of reality sets in, that it's all meaningless and you will die someday? Also, when some people will make fun of you?

If your friends think you watch hentai then they are probably right. Just accept it and tell them, "Yes, I do love me some anime titties!"

Idk man, I don't know how many sun sets and sent of pine trees it takes to get over being a third world child sex slave but I bet its a lot. What I'm trying to day is the human experience varies a lot based on the human.

Trust me, you are taking this a lot more seriously then I am.
It all being meaningless makes it easier to enjoy things.

Can you imagine the soul crushing weight of the things you do actually mattering? Jesus that'd be nuts.

when you think about it modern ennui is a huge luxury, its a problem only literally kings had hundreds of years ago

you live in a big dumb stupid building and do a job that has no physical meaning or relevance and you don't have to worry about god you are warm and fed every night, can read and write and can receive messages from across the planet and have reason to do so. we're all kings.

kinging is super boring though so they turned to wars, or sometimes super devoted to charity or furthering the arts and sciences. these helped bring meaning into those kings lives, so try those things until you feel less ennui

or you could give it all up and be a peasant, move somewhere where you probably will die from something we have an over-the-counter for, do physical labour and feel like you are making a difference because your caveman brain doesn't realise that everything you build will decay in a matter of moments for a billion different reasons, it doesn't care its like make fire warm hut good survival monkey.

either way it's your duty to determine what is meaningful, and if nothing is then it means you haven't taken responsibility for yourself

You should post a thread about how human existence is truly meaningless. That'll wake up the sheeple.

no the very physiology of the ear, evolved to detect predators and prey, requires certain sounds to be pleasant, which is why you like certain harmonies. you like certain rhythms because of basic structures in your brain that are the precursors to language. you're essentially masturbating, short-circuiting a survival instinct to make yourself feel good.

the idea that human life is meaningless is objectively wrong so I probably won't do that

It is hard not to enjoy a proper anal pounding on a rainy Sunday afternoon. Lightning and thunder to accent the mood and then have it all ruined by having your mother walk in on you mid-climax. Yeah, I guess you can't really enjoy anything anymore. What a pity.
