adscititious (ad-si-TISH-uhs) adjective

Derived from outside; external; additional.

Another Type-3 for which the Type-2 might be "extrinsic"; Laverne says it sounds like it should mean skeptical about hype

"...Good old Biff."
"It won't last. It's a thoroughly adscititious
sobriquet."
"I shan't give you the satisfaction of asking you
what adscititious means."
"Irrelevant."
