Absurd

adjective/ab-SURD/

Meaning

So silly or unreasonable that it does not make sense.

In context

The clown wore an absurd hat that was taller than he was.

Remember it

ABSURD sounds like 'a bird' wearing shoes: a ridiculous, senseless picture.

Use it well

Use for ideas so silly they're almost laughable, stronger than 'strange'.
