demented adj. Yet another term of disgust used to describe a
   malfunctioning program. The connotation in this case is that the program
   works as designed, but the design is bad. Said, for example, of a
   program that generates large numbers of meaningless error messages,
   implying that it is on the brink of imminent collapse. Compare {wonky},
   {brain-damaged}, {bozotic}.
