jomo

noun

1. (alt-of, alternative)Alternative spelling of dzomo (“female yak–cow hybrid”).

   “c'''1882, Sarat Chandra Das, Journey to Lhasa and Central Tibet, John Murray (1902), page 71, December 26.—The Deba has a dozen jomo and cows yielding plenty of milk. A jomo yields four times the quantity of milk which a cow or female yak gives. […] the Tibetans value very highly the jo, which is, besides a good milker, most useful in husbandry.”

2. (Southern-US, alt-of, alternative)Alternative form of mojo.
3. (abbreviation, alt-of, initialism, uncountable)Initialism of joy of missing out.

   “In short, JOMO allows for mindfulness, freedom and space to think. You don't know what your missing out on -- and you don't want to either.”

   “Yes, you've guessed it. There's a polar opposite to FOMO. JOMO! Joy of Missing Out. Hooray! JOMO is your best friend, so get to know it really well. When you have JOMO, you are so happy and busy doing your own thing that you have no time to worry or care about missing out on that party, that conversation, Monika's messages.”

   “Awkward encounters are inevitable when you erase Mark Zuckerberg from your life, but I just can't bring myself to go back. So often now I experience JOMO, the joy of missing out – I see things on Instagram or Twitter and I get this ecstatic wave of relief that I am not attending the damp, muddy festival du jour.”
