    This has been around for like 10 years. Is it really news?
    Yeah I think it's just the context of using it as an excuse to be a fuck up that is new. I've only ever heard the term in business context, where it is used to get people motivated to get off their ass and build something or invent something so they don't get left behind.


    I can't believe the millennial term is still being debated.

    Depends. Are we talking strictly dictionary meaning, or pop culture reference?

    Millenials don't get pop culture references.

    Yeah that’s weird to me.

    I’ve noticed it’s a consequence of being the oldest, or not in the sibling line.
    "The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents... some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new Dark Age."

    Sure they do, so long as it's in visible meme format.

    Wait, it's mid-2019, and people didn't know the term FOMO? That's what this entire thread is around?

    I mean there's an entry for it in Urban dictionary, from 2006. I first heard people using it regularly around 2013/2014. Also am a millennial.

    I'd literally never heard it before now... I also assume if you try to call somebody a FOMO it will immediately trigger the SJW's in the area.

    No comment... other than shame on you for looking down on this humble brand!
    Are you going to wait for the Eddie Bauer Edition Bronco?

    You don't call someone a FOMO, it's a state of being.

    "Man, all my friends are at AutoX, but I promised the wife I'd take her out to dinner, I'm having a severe case of FOMO" or whatever example you want that applies to you.

    I think this thread proves that the mods need to give Sugar a custom title of FOMO
