BUZZER!
Feel is a stative verb. Bad is correct. Badly is wrong.
You look badly?
You seem badly?
As James Brown once said,
I feel good!
I knew that I would.
I feel nice! (not nicely)
But those sense verbs are tricky.
You can carefully feel your way up someone's blouse.
But don't badly feel your way up. She might not feel good about your intentions. (not well) |
Damn.... that was stupid of me.  But my statement on the use of adverbs still stands.  |

I was going to use some less than polite adjectives, but when I realized you admitted your mistake (unlike a good number of the people on this board) I decided against posting them 
I guess with Gopher gone you have too much free time on your hands now |
