Sophisticity

Sophisticity: noun. The aura of cleverness around a particularly intelligent or obnoxious person. Sophisticity is also often accompanied by snide remarks, long and boring speeches, lectures, bow-ties, tweed, humour, witty remarks, poignant comments and sarcasm. The word was first used and is most commonly quoted from the works of the overly-disregarded and more-credit-deserving author William Fawkner. In his first novel Fawkner wrote: "As the man glided into the park with a bouncy step, the sun reflected off his spotless shoes and the rim of his well-worn hat turned towards the pleasant heat, his sophisticity perfused the trees and greens, lifting the overall spirit of all his fellow park-goers."
