I'm sometimes,too, have fainted "celebrating" Vctoria's Secret. Not from bloodloss - perhaps, from old age! Interesting and creative word. - OZZIEBOB, 2008-01-11: 04:09:00

Just the other day, I said, “It’s hot” and Jim spent an hour superectifying my innocuous comment going so far as to google weather patterns and average temperatures on Mars to assure me that it wasn’t hot allowing him to be, once again, superectilious.

Etymology: super-over/above + righteous-divinely right and justifiable
