drollest
Funniest in company
Drollest is the superlative of droll—most amusing in an odd or whimsical way.
Droll humor is quietly funny, often dry or understated rather than laugh-out-loud hilarious: He told the drollest stories about his eccentric neighbors.
The word has an old-fashioned, literary quality.
