A villain on the CBS soap _The Bold and the Beautiful_ described himself
yesterday (half in jest) as "the evilest that ever eviled."

The phrase has a prior existence:

2009 _The Office of Ansketil Rose_ [
http://ansketil-rose.livejournal.com/52570.html ] (Dec. 28): Yeah, Plagueis
is the evillest evil who ever evilled! He's worse than Palpatine, which is
saying a lot!

(The same poster praises the blogger's use of "suckful," as in "The Jedi
have a pretty suckful track record.")
