    I always took it the opposite. You only live once so be super careful and don’t do anything dangerous.

      The way people use it should’ve risen some eyebrows on your part if that is the case.

      Shouting “YOLO” as one jumps off a roof (to a pool, for example) seems to be the contemporary stereotype for its usage. I’ve only seen it used that way.

      If you’ve stuck with the interpretation this long, you must have very curious views on carefulness and safety 😁
