“Unridiculous” is a portmanteau of “unbelievable” and “ridiculous” coined by Clint D. during a frustrating
phone conversation with a
Chinese restaurant over an incorrect order. It refers to a combination of frustration, severe disbelief, and confusion. (The term
may have originated from "
UN-believable," a common saying of a coworker with a long emphasis on the first syllable and with similar meaning.) Mimicking this confusion started as a joke, but the term has come into serious usage among his ~100 coworkers and possibly beyond.
