Romanians have a word for it

naşpa (NAHSH-pah)

Meaning - ugly, nasty, ruined, messed up, out of order, not appealing
As in your 15 yr old daughter tells you she is pregnant. Then you discover the putative father is a 57 yr old drug addict with AIDS .... or the US Secretary of State is in town telling you their folks are going to settle down around here.
