Mallternative

Similar to mall-core. As a person: One generally in high school who frequents such stores as Hot Topic, revelling in their alt.life and thinking they're so alternative when they are simply doing the same thing that most other kids across the country are doing.

As a concept: Something that is trying to hard to be cutting edge and hip and cool but is about as edgy and cool as a warm bowl of oatmeal. "alt" for the masses.

Malliteracy

A condition in which someone consistently writes words and phrases incorrectly; distinct from Illiteracy in that a malliterate person can read and write but simply gets words and phrases wrong.

Malliteracy usually occurs when a person writes words and phrases he or she has only heard but never read, such as:

1. Alot (instead of "a lot.")
2. Alright (instead of "all right.")
3. One in the same (instead of "one and the same.")
4. Pacifically (instead of, "specifically.")
5. Dominate (used as an adjective instead of "dominant.")
6. Volumptuous (instead of "voluptuous.")

(As an aside, if you read an online dating profile from a woman and she uses both of those last two words in the same profile, the odds are extremely high that she's under 5'5" tall and weighs over 300 lbs)
I had a hell of a time trying to read my friend's email, because his malliteracy made it almost impossible to figure out which words he was trying to use.
