+396 People say "you only live once" to get people to do crazy things, but why would you want to mess up the one life you have, amirite?

What they mean by that is that you only get one chance to lead a fun and worthwhile life.

that's very true, and I think that's what the phrase means. but I think the person means that you also can't live life ignoring the consequences of your "fun." so you should lead a worthwhile life, but also be rational about it.
