Hyperbolitis

'Hyperbolitis' is the name of a condition and is derived from the English word 'hyperbole' which means to exaggerate for effect.

A sufferer of hyperbolitis will often over exaggerate every day occurrences and will, for want of a better phrase, "make a mountain out of a molehill."
It is a well known fact that many attention seekers suffer from hyperbolitis.
Principal Skinner: The things you don't know would fill a whole library and leave room for a few pamphlets.

Superintendent Chalmers: There's no need for hyperbole, Seymour.

Principal Skinner: I'm sorry I suffer from hyperbolitis.

hyperbolicsyllabicsesquedalymistic

From the album 'Hot Buttered Soul' by Isaac Hayes. The LP held the number 1 R&B album spot for 10 weeks in 1969.

According to a comment on the lyrics (//genius.com/1108119 ), this word was made up by Isaac, and -start quote from Damian v B. (//genius.com/Dyazz):

This word itself doesn’t exist of course, but it does include a few other words:
Hyperbole; exaggerated.
Syllable
Sesquipedalian; a long word with many syllables.
Mistic
Conclusion: Isaac uses a lot of unnecessary long, mystic words.
