In my mind I call them "stupid" because I personally thinks desktop environments are "stupid". Sometimes this flew on the keyboard. Sorry for that.
A better word to describe those de/wm is "crap". Just my personal thought.

No one wants their software to be called a "crap", so I will not puke out again.
But many people doesn't take "personally". I wanted to write a post about this a few days ago but the op posted the meme.
