Illaudable

il-laud-ab-le (ld-bl)

adjective
1. Not to be approved or commended, deserving of censure, blameworthy.
Whyfor art thou an evil illaudable smell-feast? There's always a strange comfort in the belief that people are responsible for their own problems. It minimizes one's own sense of responsibility for other people's actions and it's always shocking to find that they find yours to be an illaudable role in the course of their lives.
I always try to do the right thing, but I am finding that people can even blame you for that. Perhaps, there is no right thing. We just have to keep on being and doing and taking as much responsibility for ourselves as we possibly can.

Synonyms: base, carnal, contemptible, corrupt, dastardly, debauched, degrading, diabolical, disgraceful, dishonorable, drunken, embarrassing, flagrant, heinous, humiliating, ignominious, immodest, immoral, impure, indecent, infamous, intemperate, lewd, low, mean, mortifying, notorious, obscene, opprobrious, outrageous, profligate, reprehensible, reprobate, ribald, scandalous, shaming, shocking, sinful, unbecoming, unclean, unworthy, vile, villainous, vulgar, wicked.

* The video that I linked to the word evil actually made me feel better, if anyone was wondering. I don't really believe in evil. I think people generally try to do what they think is the best thing for them to do. Voltaire's song takes a sarcastic approach to the discussion that I love.
