The expression is rather widespread, especially among the 1910/1920's generation of the Upper Great Lakes region (Ontario/Michigan).

The full expression is "My sufficiency is suffonsified and any more would be obnoxious to my fastidious taste."

The phrase "sufficiently suffonsified" is a playful and whimsical expression that does not have a specific origin in any historical or linguistic context. It appears to be a made-up or coined term that likely originated in a humorous or creative setting. The term does not have a formal definition or meaning in standard English language usage.
