crassest
Least refined superlative
Crassest is the superlative of crass—the most crude, insensitive, or lacking in refinement.
Crass behavior shows a complete disregard for subtlety or others' feelings: It was the crassest thing anyone had ever said at a funeral.
The word suggests not just rudeness but a coarse obliviousness to social norms.
