Malicious Over-Compliance 

A variation of malicious compliance where you respond (or offer to respond) with way more than what was asked of you, in order to try and pressure the asker to back off.
Sue: "So I told my husband I wasn't ok with him staying at his ex-girlfriend's house when he visited her town," and he was like, 'fine, I'll never hang out alone with any female friend - ever - if that's what it takes for you to trust me'!"

Sam: "That's some grade-A malicious over-compliance. My Mom's the queen of it. I told her I didn't have time to talk for 3 hours on the phone every day and she goes 'oh I'm so sorry, I'll stop bothering you with my sad, boring life - I'll never demand speak to you again... but perhaps you would allow me a 2-minute call on my birthdays and maybe Christmas?' Like, geez, lady!"

Kid: "Bye Dad, I'm gonna hang out with some older guys in a parking lot."

Sam: "No you're not - it's 10:30pm on a school night ."

Kid: "Fine, I guess I'll just stay home all day every day and never do anything but study and pray!"

Sam: "That's nice, kid - now do your homework." *turns to Sue* "Yeah, my daughter apparently inherited the malicious over compliance talent from gran-gran. I was sort hoping she'd get Mom's singing talent, but nooo... just the theater drama."

Malicious compliance 

When a superior gives you incredibly bad orders, and out of spite, you follow them to the letter, knowing the result is going to be disastrous.
Bobby: Don't change the formulas of this report. If you do, you're fired.
Frank: Whatever you say, boss.

Two weeks pass. Bobby calls Frank in to his office.

Bobby: You knew that report contained errors in its format. Why didn't you fix it, you shit?

Frank: Because you told me not to, you dick. It was malicious compliance.

Malicious Communications

A weak oppressive British law made by some moron with thin skin.

It's a law which banishes free speech and also allows people from other countries to verbally abuse you online, and if you say similar things in return, you get treated like a criminal by the police, while the low IQ individuals laugh their ass off at getting you in trouble over such petty bullshit. And then the person/persons who caused trouble get away with it because the police are too lazy to do anything, and only care about punishing their own people.

In one case, the police threatened to arrest people on Twitter who were making fun of them by asking if they had anything better to do, just because the police were tweeting and bragging about those they had caught for minor drugs possession. Police have also warned not to make fun of prison mugshots or it could land you in trouble. It will probably soon be illegal to boo at someone in public in this shithole of a country.

Britain is fast becoming a snowflake paradise of the Orwellian kind.

A weak pathetic little country full of cowards and vile double standards by the law/police.
Person from America: You're a cunt, piece of shit go kill yourself. Get better at playing games because you are a retard my friend.

Person from the UK: You're the cunt now fuck off you fag.

Useless British Police: I'm arresting you on suspicion of Malicious Communications.

maligulous 

The word coined by Landon Bryan (aka "Corpus") to describe the indescribable. The word “maligulous” is an adjective. It can also be used to represent a collection of adjectives. For example, if you find yourself in a situation where you are either at a loss for adjectives, the word “maligulous” would be substituted for any adjective(s) one would normally use to describe the situation, person, place or thing. The word “maligulous” would also be used in a situation where one would want to use a number of adjectives, but would like to describe the situation, person, place, or thing using only one word, instead of several adjectives.
The word "maligulous" can also be substituted with "maligulosity" when correct grammar permits.
Examples:

1.) If you take a bite of a dish at a restaurant, and you don’t know if it tastes salty, sweet, bitter or sour, you can say, “This tastes maligulous”.

2.) If you are in a clothing store with your girlfriend and she asks you if the dress she has on makes her look fat, you can say “It looks maligulous on you!” and not get in trouble.

3.) There is a man named Charlie standing on the sidewalk. Charlie looks across the street and sees some nacho cheese and some curdled milk playing tetherball, but since the cheese and milk don’t have arms, they both lose. Charlie says, “Well, that was maligulous”.

4.) You are sitting in a Thai restaurant where you can cook your own food. You attempt to put a piece of beef into the cooking tray, located in the middle of the table. However, as you set the piece of beef down, your long sleeve catches fire from the overly lit burner. You then jerk back your arm to get it out of the flame, and in the process of doing so, you elbow the woman sitting next to you in the mouth with enough force to break 5 of her front teeth. The woman is in the middle of a sneeze at the time her teeth are dislodged from her gums, so she then sneezes and propels the broken teeth out of her mouth at 102 km/h. The teeth travel through the air and viciously pierce the leg of an unsuspecting waiter carrying a platter of Miso soup bowls. The waiter squeals in pain as he topples forward. The scalding Miso soup follows a ballistics trajectory and splashes down on the face of an unsuspecting rodeo clown. The Miso soup mixes with the Clown’s makeup to produce a potent form of corrosive acid, thus melting all of the skin off of the Clown’s face. The Clown and his steaming skull slump back in his chair motionless. Everyone inside the restaurant looks at the Clown is shocking disbelief and morbid terror. At this point in time, it would be appropriate to say out loud “Well, that was maligulous”.
