user-unctuous
     
         (By analogy with {user-friendly} and
        {user-obsequious}) User-interfaces that attempt to soothe (or,
        some would say, stupify) users instead of cooperating with
        them.  Common "features" of user-unctuous systems include:
        icons of happy faces; mellow colors; melodic sound effects or
        even mood music; help tips appearing unbidden and at unhelpful
        moments; and a cloying tone either in system messages ("Oops!
        I couldn't seem to find my old preferences file!  I do think
        I'll have to make a new one!  Please press OK to continue!")
        or in labelling of system components (such as the main hard
        drive being labelled "Your Hard Drive" -- or, with infantile
        pronoun-reversal, "My Hard Drive").
