measliest
Least of all
Measliest is the superlative of measly, meaning the most pathetically small or inadequate.
Measly suggests contemptible insufficiency—a measly tip, a measly portion—so measliest intensifies that scorn: That was the measliest raise I've ever gotten.
The word is informal and emphatic.
