Dullest

/ˈdʌləst/ adjective

Definition

The superlative form of dull; the most dull, boring, unintelligent, or not sharp among all things being compared.

Etymology

Kelly Says

The dullest thing is almost funny—when something is so boring or stupid that it reaches a peak level, it becomes almost notable for how completely unremarkable it is!
