About This Quiz
Friday nights are famous for being epic, and for a good reason. When you're a certain age, you never know if they'll end in glory or in tears. Each week, Friday night offers us another chance to attend the ultimate party, become a legend amongst our friends or finally find true love ... or at least a great taco truck.
However, not everybody suffers from FOMO on Fridays. Instead of being crushed by the fear of missing out, some of us savor the joy of missing out, or JOMO. We eat dumb snacks, watch Netflix shows about ice skating and start endless group message chains with our friends. We're not sad to be inside — we're actually totally grateful!
So, what's your favorite way to spend Friday night? Are you all about going out? Or are you 100% committed to staying in? Wherever you fall on the Friday night spectrum, you're going to love this quiz! We want you to plan your ideal Friday night, from the time you'll leave work to the wacky food you'll eat before you collapse into bed. There are no wrong answers. All you have to do is be honest about what sparks your Friday night joy. At the end of the quiz, we'll reveal whether your choices make you more like Normani or more like Camila Cabello. Are you intrigued? Let's get quizzing!
