Butthaze
Butthaze refers to anything produced that does not please the creator, but impresses an outsider. This term is most commonly used in the creative design industry, where a designer is not pleased with his work, but his superiors, colleagues, or clients are satisfied.
History
Butthaze, originally an old method of hallucinating, consisted of urine and feces collected in a bottle and kept out in sunlight for extended periods of time. Inhaling the "haze" would invoke hallucinations for days, and sometimes death.
** There is also counter-butthaze where the creator is very satisfied with their work, but an outsider does not find it pleasing.
