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.
