Define Stay Alive Meaning

Stay Alive |-/
The phrase used by the twenty one pilots fandom. Usually stated or commented as a sort of greeting, similar to "have a nice day" or "I hope the best for you".

Stay Alive Challenge
Originating from Twenty One Pilots, this trending hashtag now known as #stayalivechallengeaccepted has been widely seen as a suicide prevention movement. The TØP fandom brought it to fame by saying stay alive |-/ as a greeting. Basically you post any picture about a happy event in your life and post it in black & white as a tribute to suicidal thoughts. The happy picture contrasts the filter to show that everything's gonna be okay.

Lately, my whole feed has been the stay alive challenge. I'm glad someone's finally taking suicidal thoughts seriously.
