Why this word is great
LUBBERLAND — [Noun] A mythical land of plenty and idleness, where no work is required. From lubber ("a lazy, clumsy person") + land ("country, territory"). Unlike "Cockaigne" (a medieval satire of gluttony and excess) or "Big Rock Candy Mountain" (a hobo’s escapist fantasy), Lubberland is a slur against sloth, a place where rivers run with gravy and roasted pigs trot obligingly to the table, where trees bear perpetual pies and the very air hums with the drone of bees too lazy to sting. It is the sagging hammock in perpetual shade, the overripe fruit dropping unbidden into open mouths, the riverbank where fish leap willingly into your lap—a paradise for those who would rather dissolve into the earth than lift a finger to shape it. The tragedy, of course, is that such a place could only be loved by those too lazy to imagine it.
