I'm currently, or at least the doctors general assessment of me is that I'm dying of cancer, maybe a year left if I'm lucky so I unfortunately seem to be experiencing this quite a lot at the moment. Missing out on my kids turning into adults as they're at that stage, missing out on how the world pans out, my background in international politics and how certain world defining events are currently developing. I think a lot is related to time. How much we have or perceive to have left to achieve it not miss out on things. A misspent youth does probably mean I have watched every episode of Colombo though, so that can be a life achievement I guess. At least your videos keep me cheery on some of these long dark nights though. Thanks a lot Georg.
I'm very sorry you're being put through that. Hang in there and make the most of every moment you can. More specifically, look into reducing your intake of the amino acid methionine from your diet. Depending on the type, this may help. Don't harbor false hope, but the science backs it up. I am not a medical professional. Google "methionine restricted diet" or "methionine and cancer" and talk to your doctor. I lost my father to cancer, and my grandfather, grandmother, cousin, aunt, and nearly my sister. I wish you the very best and as much peace and joy as you can manage. Be well and hang in there
I used to fear missing out on lots of things. Then I started doing things I liked on my own, for my own vindication or entertainment. Most people think I am wasting time or potential... but I think the same of them.
I used to have this thing where I didn't want to go to concerts by myself - no particular reason, I just thought that wasn't really something anyone did....and then some of the musicians I had skipped out on started dying and now anytime someone I love comes through town, I snag a ticket
Waste a million, and you'll have a pile of worthless sh!t. Waste some time and potential, and you will feel good. Maybe even having a laugh. That is some priceless sh!t.
There are too many bears at the water for fishing this season. Salmon are running up the rivers, and the big fuzzies are getting fat for winter. Think I will stay well away and not disturb them.
Didn't Plato warn us of the effects of losing ourselves to fantasy? My memory is fuzzy but I recall reading about this in class years ago, that he was afraid of theater becoming a form of escapism for people to the point where they become spiritually defunct trying to chase after a dream. Idk. Tv and internet has turned that dial up by over 9,000 😅 Also, Columbo is the best. Everyone should watch him. He's the detective we all need in our lives.
Just one more thing: Columbo itself is a 90 minute or so morality play about the folly of duplicity, but it is itself a fantasy about the efficacy of justice.
Reminds me of a quote attributed to Hemingway: "There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self."
Does anyone else find it grating when someone says FOMO out loud? Or is that just me? Well let me tell you, it's something else, you do not want to miss out on how grating it is.

I am at a stage of wondering how much different my life would be if I had been wiser and more cognitive in my younger years. In hindsight and after they hurt you, mistakes and misconceptions are so obvious, making me want to scream back in time to warn myself. If only, if only.

Seriously my favorite channel. Thanks for the consistent uploads. Also thanks for not making crap content. Finally thanks for not trying to sell me a VPN.
I'm 58. FOMO does not affect my life. Mostly because I do not suffer from Affluenza, which is defined as, "The uncontrollable desire to spend money you do not have, on things you do not need, to impress people you do not like."
Dude, I'm _always_ having an aneurysm. And You're right, I _really_ ought to get on my arse and finally watch (all of) Columbo. I recently got introduced to _'Columbocore'_ courtesy of NoiseLund. It's amazing. Why am I still not watching Columbo. Right now.
I never become envious. It is not in my genes. I sometimes wish I was like normal people. They have a much better time of it. You don't know what it is like not being capable of envy.
I actually consider it a great strength that I don't envy anyone. Almost all of my personality traits are incredible virtues. I think one of the strongest virtues I have is my humility. You've probably never met anyone as humble as I am.
Spooky, I signed off work for a month last week with a dodgy back. I just bought the complete DVD box sets of Monkey (1978) and Columbo used from eBay.
The Fresh Prince of Belair and Columbo. I would not have thought it likely that Georg would have those two programs on his mind at any time. ....and two things I have no FOMO.
I literally just watched through all of Colombo for the first time last month (it was amazing), fuck I'm glad I got that out of the way before the aneurysm.
Georg, I didn't think it was possible to love you any more than I already do, but then you go and throw in a cutaway of Andy Fordham and I find I somehow do.
There's a degree of perceived control one has from obsessing on one's desires. It focuses away from problems that one has no control over. Douglas Adams had it right with his Total Perspective Vortex. We can't really tolerate the reality of things, and so have to create our own internal distractions.
Thank you for the vidja Georg. Both fishing and watching Columbo are FINE and worthwhile pursuits in my opinion. Kudos for those choices. If I had a billion or ten dollars I could afford to fish WHILE watching Columbo.... CURSE this mortal Existence~~~! Wooooooooooe is me.... Cheers.
_Hoarders_ is a great cure for this, if you can stomach watching it. I'm grateful I'm not shitting in a bucket on a pile of trash and rat droppings in a house that's starting to collapse!

I now fear I've missed out on a fair amount of fishing-induced aneurysms. Thanks, guy.
I hope Georg is alright, I think he's having an aneurism.
It's definitely him having the aneurism. No, sorry it's me.
right now?
Maybe he's been listening to Nirvana.....
Ever since Damien got the sex-change Georg has been very confused.
No, you are. Talk about projection. Jesus.
This video has motivated me to finally getting round to watching Columbo. Thank you.
Make sure to post about it on social media to make all your friends jealous.
You won't regret it

I wanted to finish this video, but I felt an overwhelming urge to go FISHING!

That lava lamp gets a little bigger every update.. And oddly enough, I think Steven Seagal has that same shirt but in XXL size.
You're right we are missing out on burning witches . We should bring it back, maybe as a streaming show on crackle.

Oh no, I've watched all the episodes of Columbo and I don't like fishing, I think I'm having aneurysm.
Cant believe i missed out watching this bloody video yesterday... (love your bizarre summary series)
Gotcha, I'm missing out on having a Columbo-induced aneurysm, I must remedy this by binging the entire show asap.
"...engines... Liu Kang..." just... *chef's kiss*
I've been thinking about watching Columbo for a long time, this is just the wake up call I needed.
Had to click on the notification instantly couldn't miss this

That said, you do seem to be the first non-early-access commenter. Well done!

Gold! Another masterpiece here Georg. If I'm missing out on anything, frankly it can't be too important! 😋👍
Oh. Aaah. Just one more thing...
Columbo re-enters the room.
Ner, ner, ner, ner, ner, ner, ner, fishing, fishing, fishing. Columbo! I mean fishing.
Funny you should say that. I'm off fishing tomorrow
The Fresh Prince of Belair and Columbo. I would not have thought it likely that Georg would have those two programs on his mind at any time. ....and two things I have no FOMO.

Who do I love most, Georg, the lava lamp, the green lamp, or the Hefner robe?
I love lamp 🤷🏼♀️
More specifically, the lava lamp.
I love this channel so much
I've been fishing a few times. It's nice, but I wouldn't worry about missing out on it.

I heard of fishing, once
Oh damn, I thought this was going to be about Footie Orator Michael Owen
I'm proud to say that I have watched the entirety of Columbo already. I didn't waste my life like so many others.
I think I'm having an aneurysm right now
A produced life is a life, but you had better have a good agent to negotiate that contract.
Yes I've seen the first 80 hours of columbo ! Several times !
I wish I grew up in time to be on scrapheap challenge
How did I miss this

somewhat protected from the wind
and what a view
Love ya Georg, no FOMO.
Well, I know what I'm having for aneurysm.
LOL joke's on you, I've watched 80 hours of Columbo twice and I will again before my probably aneurysm.
I choose to believe the lava lamp is behind Georg
I'm just sad I'll never get to enjoy the sweet and sour taste of Hip Tang...
Kill me
Oddly enough, i have seen all of Columbo .
Sou muito sortudo. Já assisti tudo de Columbo há mais de 30 anos, e também nunca mais pesquei. Já ouviu falar de mountain bike?
GREG! Omg Geoffrey lived with the Banks' you great fool! You couldn't live with him - he didn't commute!

I've seen all the Columbo.
...and Game of Thrones...
...I think I'll watch Columbo again...
I've never been fishing before.
So did you watch _Fall of the House of Usher_ or did you miss out, Georg? Throughout the entire show, I kept thinking of your series on the Sacklers.
I think the term FOMO applies to phenomenon like Fyre Festival and meme stocks and Stanley cups. I don't think it's the same as just envy.
