Nothing matters (so do nothing because there is no reason to do something)
Nothing matters (so do anything because why not!?)

I consider myself as mostly existentialist (nothing matters, so find your own meaning), but absurdism has a strong pull, I must admit.
-
Existentialism doesn't necessarily claim that nothing matters, so yours sounds more like optimistic nihilism, which is very similar if not identical to absurdism.

Thanks for pointing that out. I was trying to be concise and keep in style with the OP, but I may have gone overboard there.

Because I didn't know absurdism, I read the second one differently at first:
[The] nothing matters.
And I immediately had to think of this gem:
"But it doesn't do anything!" - "No, it does nothing."
