You know, as much as it’s maligned, I really don’t hate the concept of YOLO. (Nor do I hate the song that it comes from, which gets me even more flack from people.) Sure, it can be used to (try and) justify some silly acts. But, really, “YOLO” is just a new way of saying “carpe diem”…and what’s so wrong with that?
But some parts of life lack the sense of excitement and daring that “YOLO” is supposed to convey. And yet some people still love to use the term to describe the most mundane events (I like to give them points for irony). Here are 11 examples of folks quoting “YOLO” in not quite the right way.
I suppose the above woman could try and convince people that she was going for a totally different meaning with her textually-incorrect tattoo. Heck, I’m even sensing that you could still tie “you only live ones” back to YOLO in some sort of muddled way. Head on over to the source to see even more inappropriate uses of the popular term!

What do you think of these YOLOs? Which is funniest?

Used accurately or not, YOLO is the stupidest thing ever. -_-

These are fucking awesome. They are used in the only way someone should use the term #YOLO. You know those people that eat grapes in the store without washing them are hardcore, especially if the grapes aren’t organic. I mean sometimes I eat my grapes in the car without washing them, but I ALWAYS pay for them. The life of thugs, man. The life of thugs. #YOLO!
