Badmiration: /bad-meer-A-shun/ Todd knew going to his ex-sister-in-law's funeral was the right thing to do, and was already feeling proud of himself--even smug--for being a stand-up guy. That just made him all the more surprised (and ashamed) by the wave of badmiration that came over him when he saw his ex-wife process in, followed by her mother, who seemed to be hotter in grief than he could ever recall her being before. He slinked out of the service before the end. Etymology: Bad, as in "not good" combined with admiration--the feeling aroused by something strange and surprising. Created by: astorey.
