It has incomplete matches in too many different ways.  Something like

.*.*

is a trivial example of stuff that can usually match in too many
different ways.  A nice regexp is one where each character of an
incomplete match is only a candidate for a single component of the
regexp.

An ugly regexp is one where adding one character to the match grows the
possibly match/pattern correspondences by more than one repeatedly.
