NOTHING MAKES MY INSTAGRAM FOMO WORSE THAN SUMMER
Instagram is the ultimate source of FOMO. There are certain times of year that can make it sting worse than ever. And this weekend, we’re headed straight for the eye of the storm… summer.
Weather
Coming top of my list this week is *drum roll* any time it’s sunny out. This particular branch of FOMO I will hereafter refer to as FOMTS (Fear Of Missing The Sun). Having spent all of my youth in the North of England, I’ve been brought up to know that it’s always nicer down South – for a long time that meant pure jealousy of people posting sunny pictures on Facebook while I was shaking off my umbrella near rainy Manchester. But now I actually live in London it’s worse if anything. This week I’ve spent a good portion of my time shivering under a blanket on my sofa with only Netflix and Lemsip for company and, judging by Instagram, everyone else has been SHAMELESSLY SUNNING THEMSELVES in my absence.
