Not sure what crazy dictionaries *you're* looking at, but mine makes a
clear distinction between the two words:

worse - adj. Bad or evil in a greater degree; less good
worst - adj. Most bad, evil, ill, or corrupt; Most unfavorable,
unpleasant, or painful

See the difference? :P

If not, I'm surprised you don't consider better and best
interchangeable, or less and least, or more and most. What did they
teach *you* in grade school? :P
