I’m a bit more ambitious. I have retired-person office chair syndrome which tends toward paying solitaire while listening to YouTube on the home-office desktop computer.
I have anxiety trying to look for work too, it stems from going through a large phone book or two’s height in applications, and being turned down or not even getting an interview on any single one of them. <>

As long-term sufferer from both conditions, I sympathise with you, Rat.
(And they seem to be incurable, as well. )

A sofectomy would resolve that problem, but the side effects may be worse

Followed by a nap attack. Sounds like a plan to The Count. Minus the beer.

Years ago I took a class on medical terminology, and IIRC
-osis denotes a condition
-itis denotes inflammation
so an inflamed sofa, often accompanied by a condition of beer and inflamed guzzle.
I guess if my sofa was in flames, I’d guzzle something – but on my way out the door! (and that WOULD be an opportunity for a beer run!)

Problem with that is that one needs a job to have money to buy the beer.

A lot of people have Rat’s “disability.” That is why we are 20 trillion dollars in debt. Rat would make a good democrat.

I have a chronic case of sofitis. However, being in my late sixties and retired, I do not see it as a disability. More of a lifestyle.

Some disabilities are bad. Others, not so much.

I suspect the pandemic left a few people with these ‘disabilities.’

Thank you for using the correct form of " to lie". I was sure it was a goner; laid out in lavender, so to speak.

Transfer Rat to THE DUPLEX.
And as the old joke goes—“He’s half lion and half dragon”.
The top half is lyin’ and the bottom half is draggin’.

The two together can be devastating…..

Somebody needs to put an alarm in the sofa whenever Rat get ‘Sofitis’. That will get him up and more likely to find a job.
