I would say depending on the context, YOLO or You Only Live Once takes the cake for a phrase that annoys me.
It seems like the majority of the time I am hearing somebody unironically say this, they are about to partake in some class of stupidity. Whether it be downing shots, taking drugs, or recklessly endangering lives.
Again, I have seen humorous moments in which this was used such as right before putting in a job application, or buying an expensive gift for somebody lol.
I just hate how social media culture has taken over this saying in order to justify seedy behavior. True, you only have one life but you are on the fast track to losing it sooner rather than later.
