bletcherous
/blech'@r@s/ , adj. Disgusting in design or function; esthetically unappealing. This word is seldom used of people. This keyboard is bletcherous! (Perhaps the keys don't work very well, or are misplaced.) See losing , cretinous , bagbiting , bogus , and random. The term bletcherous applies to the esthetics of the thing so described; similarly for cretinous. By contrast, something that is losing or bagbiting may be failing to meet objective criteria. See also bogus and random , which have richer and wider shades of meaning than any of the above.
