What are the axioms you are using to construct your argument? You are just making an arbitrary statement and presenting that as logically thought through. It's rubbish.
EDIT: existing for the pleasure of existing == existing not to convey information, but to provide auditory and visual stimuli through the use of words that have an effect on certain areas of the brain that respond to language and music.
