YO-LO [ˈyōˌlō] stands for "you only live once," and it is often used to justify taking risks or doing something adventurous that one might not normally do. The phrase encourages people to live life to the fullest and embrace opportunities without fear of consequences. It gained popularity in the early 2010s and has since become a cultural phenomenon, often seen in social media and casual conversations. While it promotes a carefree attitude, it's important to use it wisely and not as an excuse for reckless behavior. "YOLO." https://www.merriam-webster.com (8 May 2011).
