Drive by Architect

A software architect that comes up with overly complex, fragile designs that look great on paper but suck to work with. The architect subsequently bails before engineering teams start working with their 'design' and find all the design flaws, poorly thought out ideas, and parts that lack any common sense so they don't need to fix any of it.
Engineer1: We're way behind schedule because this system is so complex and fragile! Who designed this crap?
Engineer2: I forget her name. She bailed right before coding started.
Engineer1: We got drive by architected!

Landscape Architect

A made-up profession so architects can charge you for extra money in a building project.

The origin of this word begins in the 19th century, invented by the American architect Frederick L. Gardener, who believes he could earn extra money when commissioned to design Central Park in New York, who then proposed to hire a team of "landscape architects" on top of the existing architect team.
Developer: We need a garden for this estate.
Architect: Nah that's the job of a landscape architect.
Developer: What's the difference?
Architect: 2 million more dollars.
