Well today I came across the word hyfaluted in a post... so that was pretty up there. No others come to mind at the moment, but I did recently read a book which was totally like that. And it was soooooo out of place. The book was chill then BAM it was like I was hit with a thesaurus as words felt haphazardly plugged in. lol

Lol I remember having to look up "copacetic" but couldn't remember from what book/article.
