A few months ago I wrote a little bash function to put in my bashrc.
Maybe you'll like it.

    # Better yaourt
    yaourt () {
        if [[ $# == 0 ]]
        then
            /usr/bin/yaourt -Sayu
        else
            /usr/bin/yaourt $@
        fi
    }

So yaourt with no arguments updates my system. I use it about twice a day.
