bathos

bathos noun the story ends with such a stroke of bathos, you're not sure whether to laugh or scream: anticlimax, letdown, disappointment, disillusionment; absurdity; informal comedown. WORD NOTE bathos There are a couple of good reasons not to use the word bathos without severe provocation. For one thing, it means "an effect of anticlimax created by an unintentional lapse in mood from the sublime to the trivial or ridiculous, " so if you're describing a bathetic situation, chances are the language you're using to describe the trivial or ridiculous situation won't support the use of an elevated word like bathos. When you use an overelevated word in writing that's not so elevated, you're pulling the reader out of your writing, usually with a jerk. Also, many more people know the opposite of bathos, pathos (a quality that evokes pity or sadness )—so the risk that your readers will think it's just a typo (and that you mean exactly the opposite of what you actually mean ) is a real one.
