  This image is disturbing..... I can't wait to send it to my kids!

My purpose is to create excess value to be harvested by shareholders in exchange for numbers in a computer that define my worthiness to continue to exist.

I pass butter.
- Going the health route I see. Butter is very unhealthy just like monopoly's go .it's best just to pass it.
  
  Eating only lettuce and drinking 5L of water a day can also be unhealthy, just saying.
- I ask people why they have a special butter tray in their fridge
  
  It keeps the butter hard and useless?

I think it's a category error to think of people as having (or having to have) a purpose. We just are.
- People don't have to have a purpose : yes.
  in such a situation, people still are : yes.
  Furthermore, any lists of purposes I may choose today, if situations changes, I could have to modify tomorrow.

To seek out the Holy Grail!
Oh, purpose? I thought you meant AAaaaahhhhhh....

To seek the Holy Grail.
- What is your favorite color?
  
  Blue. No, yellooOOOOOOOOW

I'm not sure. A friend was talking about how her partner had been doing ayahusca and it cured his depression and made his personality turn 180 degrees around. It inspired me to try it again. I was doing it 10 years ago and it changed how I view the world. Maybe it's time again.
Our purpose is to evolve from animal-like beings that copy crude animal behavior and take as much as we can for ourselves and stash it away, into confident, generous and happy human beings that are a joy to be around. Which is hard to do considering the society we live in, and the fake lack of resources (money) we are forced to comply with.

To make the world a better place.

To keep my family as happy and healthy as possible, as long as possible.

Try as much as possible to find a hobby that sticks and brings joy.
- Depression: Not if I have anything to say about it!
  
  Damn, you didn't have to call me out like that xD

Procreate.

Work. Feed family. Take dumps. Repeat.

Stopin myself from going off the deep end
- A worthy cause - keep it up!
  
  Thanks for the positivity!

To die, and do as little extra damage as possible until that point.

Have... a good time... all the time...

There's no purpose. Life is a sandbox video game. I play it how I want.

I'm basically a rainbow colored punching bag waiting to be used by homophobes (and transphobes) who just happened to train for boxing.
My country is filled with these people.

Trying to beat my brain into submission so I can sleep.

I'm an artist. My only purpose in life is to draw and create

Trying to figure that out now. Waiting on some epiphany

Take care of my family, and to fuck with people who have too much power or take advantage of other pet.

I'm here to hopefully enjoy my time on this planet and help my wife do the same. That's about it.

As small of an impact I may have, to make the world a better place. To learn and grow and experience the inevitable pain and hardships along the way. To learn to love and provide for those in need. To serve.

Writing books and getting people to read them.

To help defeat aging. Read the book Ending Aging by Aubrey de Grey.
- Shouldn't we wait just a touch longer for the Boomer phase-out?

Make sure my cat is taken care of, and hope I find a more complex purpose and goal before he's gone.

I don't know. I just wait thing to happen. It is bored.
Why don't the world pick me as main character.
I guess i just an NPC. Perhaps the no-name NPC.

I have no objective purpose and I like it that way

We are here to take from you what you tried to take from us... Purpose!

Being someone 99% of Lemmy users won't achieve in his miserable life hah
