Thanks for the link to your personal favorite. Reminds me of something Woody Allen said in "Annie Hall": There's an old joke - um... two elderly women are at a Catskill mountain resort, and one of 'em says, "Boy, the food at this place is really terrible." The other one says, "Yeah, I know; and such small portions." Well, that's essentially how I feel about life - full of loneliness, and misery, and suffering, and unhappiness, and it's all over much too quickly.

In a similar vein, here's Garfield the comic with Garfield the cat removed: http://garfieldminusgarfield.net/ - also a great way of getting your daily dose of existential angst.
If you haven't seen it before, here's the '94 strip being mentioned:

And here's my personal favorite strip:

Peanuts strips with the third panel removed. Often revealing some existential angst.
