Here is a simple proof. Please do not get caught up on its simplicity.

>If there were nothing, there would be zero things.
>If there were zero things, the number of things would be zero.
>If the number of things were zero, there would be at least one number, namely zero.
>If there were at least one number, there would be something.

Thus, something must exist.

If neutrinoless double beta decay experiments give positive results then neutrinos are their own antiparticles, which will explain why there is more antimatter than matter, and thus by extension why there is something rather than nothing.

I have zero apples, so therefore I own zero things.

I own something. But in reality no. Zero apples is not really a thing. It is only a thing in theory.

Nothing can't exist, so the natural conclusion - what remains, is something.
Does that make sense to your little brainy?

Furthermore, you can't not exist. I can't not exist. Logically speaking. Prove me wrong anyone.
By the way, the condescension was unnecessary.
How something actually exists I have no idea. It's some crazy shit.

Nothing is a human concept. Science tries to find nothing and so far has failed, no matter where you look, there is something.
