Oh this… just a ticket to see one of my favourite rock bands in concert – The Rolling Thrones.
噢，这个……只是我最喜欢的摇滚乐队之一The Rolling Thrones演唱会的一张票。

You don't like rock music and you always stay in and wash your hair on a Thursday – or so you tell me anyway.
你又不喜欢摇滚乐，周四你总是宅在家里洗头发——至少你是这么告诉我的。
Oh Feifei, you've got FOMO.
噢菲菲，你得了“FOMO”。
I've got 'FOMO'?

FOMO is an acronym for 'fear of missing out'.
“FOMO”是“害怕错失”的首字母缩略词。
It's a worried feeling you have that other people are doing fun things when you are not – you're missing out!
这是一种担心的感觉，就是其他人在做有趣的事情而你没有，你在错过这些！
Oh, we'd better hear some examples of other people with FOMO…
噢，我们最好听一些其他患有“错失恐惧症”的人的例子……

There's a message on Facebook that all the tickets to that gig are sold out –
Facebook上有消息说这场现场演出的票都卖光了——
now I have a feeling of FOMO!
