bass-ackwards
Ass-backwards, shuffled politely
Bass-ackwards is a humorous reshuffling of ass-backwards, itself a vulgar intensification of backwards.
Something done bass-ackwards is done in completely the wrong order or in a foolish, inverted way: You've got the whole process bass-ackwards.
The scrambled form lets speakers convey the same meaning while softening the vulgarity—or just for comic effect.
