Fomo-ist

Someone who enjoys making other people suffer from FOMO. They will often send pictures of the great time they are having because others chose to go home and enlighten themselves with a Netflix series. Often the pictures they share are contribute to a false narrative they’ll share the next time they see the person enlightened by the Netflix series they chose to watch.

No FOMO

No fomo basically refers to things that you are unwilling to do, no matter how much others might think you're missing out. While some people might be inclined to swim with sharks, others will feel very apprehensive (no fomo) about it.
