I always hate the "why do you bother with/what's the point of philosophy?" question because it implies actually thinking about things not directly useful to your life is completely worthless.

Maybe it sounds like that to you, but perhaps it's because you feel threatened about thinking about such stuff. No one abolishes thinking about things that aren't exactly useful... At least I don't. I ponder about a lot of useless things =)
I'm just curious why people do it, and if there is actually something more to it than just wanting to philosophize a bit.
