unceremoniously
In blunt fashion
Unceremoniously means without ceremony or politeness—abruptly, rudely, or without the usual formalities.
Someone unceremoniously dumped from a job was dismissed without grace.
A guest unceremoniously shown the door was hustled out without pleasantries.
The word often emphasizes the bluntness or indignity of an action: He was unceremoniously tossed from the bar.
