whomping
Beating someone badly
Whomping means beating or striking forcefully, often with exaggerated or cartoonish violence: The knight went whomping through the goblin horde.
It suggests big, dramatic blows rather than precise hits.
Whomping also serves as an intensifier meaning very large or impressive: a whomping portion of mashed potatoes, a whomping success.
