oblication

A vacation whose primary purpose is to fulfill an obligation or obligations, usually ones that are not enjoyable. (E.g. visiting disliked family members, attending memorial services, weddings you'd rather not attend, etc.)
This summer we are going on a vacation to Paris and an oblication to Toronto. My sister is holding Mittens' annual cat memorial service in July. It's pretty far to drive, but we'd never hear the end of it if we weren't there.

Obligation.

An obligation is something you may not like or even enjoy doing but you do it out of respect or some profound sense of duty.

Don't ever tell your girlfriend that you're attending her 21st birthday party out of obligation. She's not American born and English is her 2nd language; she doesn't fully understand its definition. She has absolutely zero respect and will never have any sense of duty. She will fight with you for days over the true definition of the word, implying that somehow, duty has a "negative" connotation. As she verbally castrates you, you will be constantly reminded of how pussy-whipped you are and how she abuses your fear of being alone to her advantage. Your relationship with the man eating bitch, no matter how gorgeous she is, will strongly parallel repeatedly running head first into a brick wall and loving it. Even after you’ve accepted defeat, admitted your wrong doings, and apologized for them, she will continue to berate you over the fact that she is never wrong.

Four years of college… wasted out of fucking obligation.

Jane: "That's not what obligation means, look it up in a dictionary. Try dictionary.com.
Dick: "Actually, urbandictionary has a pretty good definition you omnipotent whore."

Recommendation Obligation

The obligation one has to watch a particular TV series or movie after it was recommended by a friend, colleague or family member.

The victim of Recommendation Obligation feels a sense of guilt and anxiety which is only relieved by watching the entire movie or TV series.

NOTE: Social etiquette dictates that one must suffix any recommendation with "but don't feel obliged to watch it if you're busy or if it's not your thing or whatever".
Ohhh, I'm so tired, my buddy told me to watch "Gossip Girl" so I felt Recommendation Obligation and watched every season, even though I hated it.
