Default What's your life's motto? What phrase do you live your life by?

Question in the title really but what one phrase sums up your whole attitude on life?

Mine has recently become... wait for it...

F*** it!

No reason. I've just hit 40 and decided that life's too short. Who cares with other people think? If you're not hurting anyone, just do whatever makes you happy.

Shit happens

Bollocks to it

Life is a shit sandwich and every now and again you have to take a great big bite.

What goes around comes around - believing in that one less and less.

True. You might be rather keen on lettuce but you just don't make friends with it.

"Meh". So it's an exclamation of indifference? I'll have to start using that more.

Does that mean I'm a chav now?
