obscenely

adverb more obscenely · most obscenely

  1. In an obscene manner; vulgarly.
  2. colloquial In an excessive manner. I live in an elderly building in Boston's Back Bay. In summer the place sizzles. In winter, it's hotter (unless, of course, the wind blows. Then there's no heat at all. I suspect our central heating unit is an obscenely large candle that gets blown out when we need it most.)
