Why “oblomovitis” is a great word
OBLOMOVITIS — [Noun] A state of indolent apathy or pathological inertia, characterized by a willful reluctance to leave one's bed or take action. From the name Oblomov, the lethargic protagonist of Ivan Goncharov's 1859 novel *Oblomov*, + the suffix -itis (from Ancient Greek -ῖτις, forming nouns denoting diseases or conditions), hence 'the disease of being like Oblomov'. Unlike *acedia*, which implies a spiritual torpor, or *lethargy*, which denotes a passive lack of energy, oblomovitis is a chronic, almost artistic surrender to stasis. It is the dust motes dancing in a sunbeam watched instead of rising, the unopened letter yellowing on the hall table, and the morning’s heroic ambition being the relocation from mattress to sofa—a quiet, corporeal rebellion against the tyranny of purpose.
Etymology
From Oblomov + -itis, after the nobleman who rarely leaves his bed in Ivan Goncharov's novel Oblomov (1859).
