infuriatingly
In enraging fashion
Infuriatingly describes something done in a way that provokes intense frustration or anger.
The word usually modifies adjectives: infuriatingly vague, infuriatingly slow, infuriatingly smug.
It emphasizes that the quality itself is what makes you furious—not just that the situation is bad, but that its particular character drives you mad.
