The longer the word the better I like it!

Sesquipedalian is the correct choice.  Sesquipedalian describes someone who over uses extra long words.

Is a person who uses complicated words instead of simple ones described as a garrulous, sesquipedalian, or phlegmatic?

Sesquipedalian people never say it simply, they find the longest way,
Instead of saying write it, they’ll say use alphanumeric display.

Listen Here!

I think I sound smarter if I speak with overlong words,
But the need to use big words is really for the birds.
Describing things simply shows you really know,
Complicated language is really just for show.
