Short for "joy of missing out" and an antonym to FOMO, that means that you prefer being unavailable and deliberately risking to miss a party that could be the greatest of all time, because (to be honest) you really don't care and rather stay home and watch that new Sandra Bullock movie.
- Dude, did you go to that awesome party last night?
- No, I was home watching a movie. JOMO!

Joy of Missing Out: A sensation of pleasure caused by social deficiency. JOMO cherishes moments of aloneness, it distances one from the extravagant broadcast of social interactions on sites such as Facebook. The opposite of FOMO, or "fear of missing out." The term was first published by ART PAPERS in January 2014.
The JOMO user is so happy not to be there. When the JOMO user does go out, he or she almost immediately regrets it - besieged by FOMO on missing JOMO.
