Morphology
fuckwaffle + excuse
The noun 'excuse' makes the overall category clear, and the modifier is compositionally negative: if a learner knows 'fuck' (profane intensifier) and 'waffle' (sense of nonsense/equivocation), they can partly infer a contemptible or nonsensical justification. However, 'fuckwaffle' is a nonstandard, slangy nonce formation with strong taboo register and unpredictable nuance, so the exact meaning and acceptability are not fully derivable without exposure.
Etymology
Fuckwaffle excuse comes from putting the rude word fuck and the verb waffle together, where waffle means 'to talk a lot without saying anything useful'. So the picture is someone angrily talking nonsense to hide the truth, and it now means 'a silly or fake excuse said in an annoying way'.
