Cheech is forthright in his beliefs.

Your ideal avatar would be to take one of the Nihilists from "The Big Lebowski" and superimpose a spliff into his hand.

^Wow, how wrong are you?

Nihilism (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nihilism) ... which argues that life is without objective meaning, purpose, or intrinsic value (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intrinsic_value_(ethics)).

There's a reason I specified the Nihilists from "The Big Lebowski"... :rolleyes:

The Big Lebowski could so easily have descended into a checklist of absurdities for the sake of wackiness. But whimsical dialogue and surreal moments are only half of what makes the Coen brothers so remarkable as film-makers. Someone once said: "In order to be funny you have to be sad first." The Big Lebowski, like almost everything in the Coens' repertoire, is deadpan hilarity tinged with the morose. There is a sense, though it plays out very quietly, that The Dude is a man whose time has passed. The real Lebwoski calls him a bum, the police throw cups at his head because he is an old hippy who contributes nothing, a local pornographer drugs him because he's a minor irritant. The film hints, but only as an aside, that money corrupts; leaving The Dude to fight a lone battle against men who "treat objects like women".
http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Film/Pix/pictures/2011/11/2/1320233359683/The-Big-Lebowski-002.jpgIt's never quite clear whether it bothers The Dude, co-author of The Port Huron Statement and former member of the Seattle Seven (http://www.worldsstrangest.com/mental-floss/the-dude-the-port-huron-statement-and-the-seattle-seven/), that the world continues at a pace out of step with his own – mostly because he is constantly stoned. This film is one of the few times a director has truly captured the glass-eyed effects of weed without resorting to cliche. Is The Dude a self-contained stoner or delusional loner? It's hard to tell because his exclusive concern revolves around locating a missing rug.
