Do you live by #YOLO or #YODO?

[Jazzy]

A popular phrase used to philosophise about life is You Only Live Once, or 'YOLO' as it's known in the world of social media.

Since 2010, the hashtag #YOLO has been used 20 million times on Twitter to demonstrate how people embrace life to the fullest.

#BBCtrending reports on how #YOLO has also inspired a conversation about death online. People have taken the opportunity to express their end of life wishes by sharing the hashtag #YODO, You Only Die Once.

Have you posted either hashtag?

Which one best describes your philosophy about life?

That fad needs to die out already.

I tend to ignore anything with the term "hashtag" or the pound/number sign in the title.

Usually, whatever it is, is stupid.

No exception in this case.

People over here are actually starting to use it as a word when talking... It's usually the same people who say "OMG" 20 000 times in one sentence. *sigh*

I'm pretty sure I've never used "you only die once." I'm not particularly a fan of either, however.

If I use it, you can be sure it's about something stupid or suicidal as opposed to carpe diem.

Oh and never in writing. Ever.

For some reason this thread reminded me of this song.

I have no idea why.

I always thought "YOLO" stood for, you ought to look out!
