Shit Proxy

An interface, implemented by software or business process, built on a source of unmanaged and incoherent data, and acts as poorly or poorer in its behavior than if the original data source was interacted with directly.

Developer 1: This API works in the most unbelieve illogical manner.
Developer 2: What do you mean?
Developer 1: When I used the original data source it was at least possible to find the exact thing I wanted and now because this shit proxy written by morons is in the way...I can't get it to do anything because they've changed all the search parameters. It's a fucking unique ID just return the fucking data with the Id specified.
