quasi-doltish

adj. Sorta-kinda like a frikkin', freakin', flippin' dolt.

Real citation: "(Aw) is a favorite expression of Walt Disney's quasi-doltish character Goofy."
(Mark Dunn, page 13, Zounds! A Browser's Dictionary of Interjections)

Made-up citation: "If I ran a school, I'd get rid of letter grades and replace them with helpful phrases like 'intellectual giant of our time' and 'to call him quasi-doltish would be generous.'"
