soul-crushing

1. Completely devastating or demoralizing. Hearing that kind of inflammatory rhetoric come from my beloved mentor was just soul-crushing. Yet another soul-crushing playoff exit. Can you remind me why I follow this stupid team?

2. So boring or tedious as to make one miserable. Believe me, I am thrilled to be back at school after a summer of soul-crushing data-entry work.
