The ugliest word for "pretty" ever

Pulchritudinous.

If someone ever tells me I'm pulchritudinous, I think I'd be flattered, though quite curious as to why they reached for the ugliest word for "pretty" in the history of the English language...

Wow, that really is gross. "Pulch"...anything that starts with
"pu" can't be good. Punk, punch, puke... How did you come across the word? I'm so going to look up the pronunciation. Definitely the word of the week!
