Never been able to put up with “YOLO” philosophy (if we can call it that way). It’s selfish in nature, caring only for your own pleasure. Yes, they are right when they say you only live once, but why make it all about yourself? Why to make it on how much pleasure you can give yourself. I’m not saying giving you unfathomable pain is the way to go. Why not rise above oneself? Why not caring about others? Existentialism and atheism go hand in hand. Since there is no heaven and hell, then how cares what you do on this life? Nobody is watching you, then you are free to do things otherwise you would not do. Existentialism puts aside moral barriers to achieve self-pleasure. Not different from those little mice pulling a lever.
Why caring about other is better? Well, as humans our brain has some other capabilities other than receiving pleasure, we can imagine, we can design, we can change our world for good or bad. It is a little more complex, and not as pleasurable, to change the world. Yes you give pleasure yourself at the end by contemplating something you didn’t think was possible. But now your existence is good for you and for others.
Guys partying till

order to give themselves scattered moments of pleasure
