Opposite of the “fear of missing out” (FOMO), the “joy of missing out” (JOMO) embraces missing various opportunities, perhaps by coming to terms with all the “missed opportunities” that often exist in day to day life which can cause anxiety for some people.

Has anyone felt this or have thoughts on the concept?

    I don’t know if this is what you mean, but I think the joy comes when someone challenges you on it

    -You must have heard of X. They did Y!
-Nope!
-Maybe you don't know them by name, but you must have heard of Z!
-No idea what that is >:3 *smugs smugly*
