I find it odd... You said before you never do anything for no reason. So you're out of your comfort zone here. I do pointless things all the time. In fact my life has no point. I thought you were smarter than acting as if you know all about things that are outside your scope of experience? (Not that im trying to imply im better than you or anything, pointless things are exactly what their name states. Unconstructive, illogical, meaningless, without value.)

I dont understand where you get superficial from. Pointless things are far from superficial, in fact they are at the complete opposite end of the spectrum. Did them as a natural reaction when the opportunity arised? What does that even mean?

A natural reaction to what? And what "opportunity?" If they were a natural reaction, everybody would be doing them. And there is no opportunity, because you can do them whenever you want. Actually, you do pointless things out of the blue. That is IF they really are pointless.

I mean people go for walks, play sports, make music, fool around, but usually its for a point and not truly pointless. For example instead of walking for the sake of walking or sitting for the sake of sitting, they do it to gain something (fitness or whatever it may be). Or they have rests in between periods of work not purely to relax or rest, but so that they can work more efficiently when they get back to working.
