Y.O.D.A (or YODA) is the nihilists' YOLO and an acronym for "You'll Only Die Anyway." To YOLO positivists, finite time compels them to occupy themselves with activities which bring meaning to their lives. The fact that "you only live once" brings significance to those actions. To YODA nihilists, that finite time in fact negates the significance of such activities, as the human condition has no value.
Y.O.L.O positivist: "I think I'll work on my novel today."
Y.O.D.A nihilist: "Why? You aren't going to care when you're dead."
Y.O.D.A convert: "I guess you're right. Let's get wasted."
