blockish
Thick and stupid
Blockish describes someone or something resembling a block—square, chunky, or lacking refinement.
Applied to people, it suggests dullness or stupidity, as if the mind were as unresponsive as a block of wood: a blockish fellow who couldn't follow the simplest argument.
The word is old-fashioned and literary.
