    "YOLO" is what you say when you mean carpe diem, but your vocabulary is limited to that of a six year old. I've noticed people have started putting it in their names on other sites. As far as I know, no one has done so here yet, so: FIRST!11!!11one! This may be a good time to put "YOLO" in the list of censored words. expecting univotes any minute now :)

        YOLO and Carpe Diem have different meanings but you would need to have the vocabulary of at least an 8 year old to notice : )

          To heck with "Carpe Diem". I prefer "Carpe Jugulum".

              I've started noticing this on sites like Failbook, but it seems to be an American thing. I have no idea what it stands for.

                      YOLO (You only live once) is frequently used to justify doing something dangerous. a: "You going to go skydiving?" b: "YOLO" But it really shouldn't be used in that context as it's quite ambiguous. For example if some one asked me if I were going to go skydiving I might say "YOLO" (I wouldn't, but for arguments sake let's pretend I would) as a way of saying hell no. You see, since I will only live once, I don't want that one time to be cut short, so maybe I should exercise a little bit of caution.

                            Thanks for this post, Jeremy. Now I don't have to lie when I tell my boss I need to take the rest of the day off becuase of a migraine.

                              You are trying to apply logic and reason to pop-culture cliches. I agree with you, but it won't hold. :)

                              There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
