YOLO Ruins Lives: Student Suspended Over Test Prank

Today's life lesson: YOLO will seriously screw up your life.

A Texas teenager learned that lesson recently when he was dealt a four-day suspension for scribbling the acronym on a state-required standardized test. Arlington High School junior Kyron Birdine snapped a photo of the cheeky essay answer and tweeted the image to the Texas Education Agency and the Arlington school district.

According to WFAA, Birdine defended the YOLOing, saying: "It wasn't for a grade. Colleges don't see it. It didn't benefit my personal life at all."

School officials reportedly considered the tweet a security breach and forced Birdine to delete it. Well, you only live once -- amirite?
