Today I heard someone use the word explitcific. Since I know this person and I heard the context in which it was used, I'm confident that this person simply merged two words together. But it's a great word, if also a new word. So your task: In the spirit of Oswald Bates, the character in In Living Color who reached a little too far and ended up speaking almost entirely in malapropisms, you are to:
1. Define explitcific.
2. Use it in a sentence.
Bonus points for tying the word to the photo.

Explitcific means graphicalistic -- or, should I say, carnalerrific -- in the highest degradationism of recalcitranized prolificarnation and exaggerinification.
"Did you see the explicitific -- or, shall I say, vibranted overcolorifallacy -- look on his face?"

Sorry, I missed tying it to the photo -- them big ugly bugs are explitcific.
I believe what you actually heard was expletcific, meaning a situation that inspires a certain and well-chosen bad word to be uttered. No other word will do.
