We are all hypocritical. I am, you are, anyone reading this. So yeah, we create contradictions, what is your point?
My point is that your philosophy makes no sense. You admitted that the whole thing was inherently hypocritical, which proves my point
Just because you 'don't get it' does not mean it makes no sense. It makes no sense to you.
I think I was pretty clear in my previous statement and find nothing irrational about it. I stated that nothing has meaning and none of our actions matter, while elaborating that the things that I do for self pleasure are exactly that-just for pure self pleasure, via hedonism, because I might as well live my life until I die and have fun with it.

Sure you do (as do most people), you either are truly unaware of it or in denial. For example I don't support murder, yet I am an omnivore. The food products I buy financially support the slaughter of various different animals. I also support common decency, yet have been in situations where I have forgone that. I am an atheist who despises religion and wishes it ceases to exist, yet I support freedom of religion (in the sense that people have the right to believe in whatever they want to).
I am no doubt sure you are in similar predicaments, where you have a specific perspective, yet your actions contradict it. Everyone has.
