/blech'*-r*s/ Disgusting in design or function; aesthetically

unappealing. This word is seldom used of people. "This

keyboard is bletcherous!" (Perhaps the keys don't work very

well, or are misplaced.) 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.
