treacherous

adj 1: dangerously unstable and unpredictable; "treacherous winding

roads"; "an unreliable trestle" [syn: {unreliable}]

2: tending to betray; especially having a treacherous character

as attributed to the Carthaginians by the Romans; "Punic

faith"; "the perfidious Judas"; "the fiercest and most

bletcherous

/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.
